  Records not handy. I faxed a futures order for 18b to the winery 20 years ago and have the original somewhere--but where? From what's left, I expect that I ordered 5-6 of this for less than 15/b; after this one, I have one left. Synthetic cork. Decanted with heavy sediment for its age (bottled unfined/unfiltered). Medium ruby with some amber edge; very mature tart cranberries, some toffee, bit of beef bouillon that follow on the palate, some astringency, lean. Interesting and pleasant enough, but not easy to like on Day One; perhaps more mellow on Day 2. Composition: Zin (75%), PS (19), Aca Modot CS (6). Striking contrast with his much preferred '02 Estate Zin. Stored horizontally (no need!) in a cool, dark basement since purchase. Quality, price, age: Notable.
