Gorgeous. Restrained yet demonstrating a generosity of ripe fruit. medium plus body. Long finish, some complexity. Has the structure for last for a long time. Drinking now.

Letting it open longer than usual. Very tannic from the start with lots of fruit; it tasted fine without all the tannins taking over. I aerated it twice with an improved profile. It could be at the end of its life, or it just needs some resuscitation. Tonight, it will tell.

At peak, classic napa cab with very good fruit, well integrated oak and some sweetness

This is at the end of its prime, I would say. Very enjoyable. Great cab.

Nearing the end of its life, but still quite good. Picked this up for 44.95 at our local Italian deli; a good value.
