Our first CellarTracker opinion. While creating initial inventory of cellar found this bottle of wine. Purchased on a trip to local wine store to purchase a variety of wine to share. Grilled some T Bones with potatoes thought it might be fun to open a non descript 07 Napa Cab with a 09 vintage of a lifetime Bordeaux. 07 Napa Ideology wins. Is it Great probably not is it very very good with potential to be great in 3-5 yrs absolutely. If I get cherry sweet tart on the nose I am excited. Took about an hour in a decanter but Ideology arrived. Still tight. Tannins are aggressive. Finish is medium. Needs some more time.

Sweet finishes of dark fruit, oak throughout, deep legs, undertone spice, not dry for a cab sav
