  Have to agree with several notes here. Especially cutthroattrout. I think CH got ahold of some very good Cali Cab. My initial impression years ago was that this was a good but not great wine. After a 4 hour slo ox and 2 hour decant, this wine was very good,indeed. Deep dark color with no browning. Strong nose of plums, dark fruit and seondary layers. Full bodied Smooth mouthfeel, ameliorated but present sweet tannins, balanced, long finish. Drinks like a high end Cali Cab. Very suprising and enjoyable.

  very smooth great Cab. The last of 12 bottles, which held up very well.

  Opened a bottle of this wine about 7 years ago and thought it needed more age. So I buried the the remaining 11 bottles into a corner of my cellar.
  
  PNP tonight and my first reaction was Wow, this is a good wine.
  Very fruit forward, soft tannins, good acid balance, well integrated oak. Good fruit length, Plums and Blueberry.
  
  Great value, drinks like a much more expensive Napa Cab.

  Very nicely drinking right now. Nice balance of fruit, oak, tannins. Nice nose of berries, cassis, typical cabernet. Tannins are still present and add to the balanced structure. Can go a few more years with proper storage. Very pleasant with food or by itself.
