Age has balanced and smooth the rough edges. This was a highly enjoyable, mature, full bodied Cabernet that is ready to enjoy today. Well worth the wait!

Decanted 2 hours, last bottle of five, love to have more. Paired with prime boneless NY strip, roasted asparagus, roasted carrots, roasted muchrooms and whole garlic. I can tell you this combo was something to be savored. This Napa Cab paired incredibly, currants, cassis, dark plum, great structure, dusty, cedar notes, ready now but cold easily go five plus more years in a cool cellar, but why wait.

Decanted 1 hr, another nicely balanced Napa cab,, plenty of currant, cassis, dark cherry, plum, hints of earth, integrated tannins, drink over the next 3 or so years.

PNP, currants, cassis, sweet finish, but not overdone, plenty of structure at least for the short term.

Beautiful nose, currants, plums, quite dry compared to the 09 caymus on the same table. Very nice effort that is a nice match for food.
