This one is holding up nicely even after 20 yrs and is a testament to how good Freemark Abbey is at making cabs. Notes of berry, vanilla. Wonderfully soft tannins on the finish. Was a pleasure to drink.

Lovely energy with still big fruit on the palate; the finish, while incredible smooth with perfectly integrated tannins, is quite short, leaving you wanting more. Recommend decanting 3 hours.

Served with standing rib roast. Lovely wine with flavors of cherry and black currant.

Absolutely lovely. Decanted for a couple of hours; the wine still offered good structure, delicious fruit, and a fairly long finish.
