After 20 years it is still nice. Color was good - very slight brown on the edge, the body was a little light and it was perfectly clear. Paired with Surf and turf it was nice - good berry flavors start to end, no real oak or vanilla like when it was young. Mouth feel was nice - easy drinking, smooth, no tannins.

Black currents and black raspberries, tobacco with rich mouth-feel dominate this structured older classic cab. Minerals and soft tannins, despite slightly acrid aftertaste. Slightly tart nose, medium finish.

Got this for my son's 21st bday dinner from Wine Bid. It has aged beautifully. An excellent wine.

Didn’t expect much. Blew me away. Glad I have a few more bottles.

Wine in excellent condition, and has lost both fruit and tannins over the years. So, it is just nice, refined, but relatively nondescript fruit juice.
