Big, powerful Dry Creek Cab with a 40 second finish. This is still going strong and got better as it warmed in my glass. I envy those who still have bottles left in their cellars.

drank as part of a small vertical of 2004 thru 2008. 2007 was the clear winner. dark fruit, good tannin, great acid, great length of finish. Very earthy finish.
four of five people had this wine as their favorite.

Popped and poured with a roasted chicken dinner. Nice minerality and black fruit with a great long finish. Grippy tannins to begin and evolved nicely after an hour. Could use a 1-2 hour decant or another year in cellar.

a little tannic - needs to sit in the cellar another year or two, but will be excellent later.
