  I bought this on auction after trying a bottle from the same lot from a member of our wine tasting group. It may even be direct from the vineyard, but it was well preserved with no seepage. I loved this wine with pot roast..resolved tannins, wonderful tertiary flavors with still some mild hints of blackberry. I would have definitely called this older bordeaux on a blind tasting. 2h slo-ox prior to drinking. Unfortunately, my last bottle of four, all of which were exceptional for the price.

  Waited too long to drink it. Probably should not have even bought it.

  Purchased at auction for $40, and is well worth that price. Classic aged Napa aromas and well-balanced flavors, with a perfect grip of tannins. Paired well with filet mignon. In a perfect spot right now.

  Classic Napa Cabernet with a lot of primary, ripe cassis. There is also some orange pepper. This wine is quite youthful and shows how age worthy Napa wines are. It is medium to full bodied and has quite a long aftertaste.
