  Very good Sonoma Cab, this has aged well and shows a good bit of nuance.

  Wonderfully aromatic. Deep dark in the glass. Dark fruit flavors with plummy overtones. Past prime but still showing nicely.

  Cork broke, but the wine was surprisingly fresh and bright. Much improved over the last bottle opened a few years ago. Not much fruit nor complexity but a pleasant Bordeaux style red and a good accompaniment with a grilled steak. Plenty of life left.

  Still very good, not over the hill yet, although it is fit to pop-n-pour.

  Smooth. Moderate fruit (less than the 2009 at the same dinner) and medium finish. This wine has aged well and all the parts are well-integrated.
