This was a stunning bottle of O'Shaughnessy - dark mountain fruit, lovely aroma, rich, teeth-stainingly good, balanced, clean, powerful yet elegant, smooth on the palate and with a long finish that invites you back for more. I would venture to say that this wine is at its peak. This is what you get when you are patient with big CA wines. Oh, what a reward. Three cheers for O'Shaughnessy.

Beautiful Napa mountain fruit in it's prime - great balance and minerality. At 16 years old still spry, tannins resolved and plenty of fruit and acidity. I believe this is at it's peak and will be drinking well for the next 3 to 5 years. For CA cabs it does not get much better than this! Drink or hold

I do enjoy the wines from O'Shaughnessy, and this bottle was no exception.
No formal notes, but everyone enjoyed this wine

Maybe Brett, maybe held too long altho that shouldn’t be, but first from this vineyard where we poured out the contents. Very sad, and atypical.
