Solid mature cab, perhaps better earlier as some suggest but clearly not yet dead. It did however lack any Rutherford dust I was hoping for, and provided a disappointing QPR @ $70+

Drink now. Dried currant nose, aromatics, oak; rich berries when opened, then softened to juicy red fruit, hints of leather and spice, soft tannins, has lost its body and complexity at this point, past prime

Enjoyed this bottle with grilled tri-tip outside. It paired well, but surprisingly, it felt a little tight. Not sure if it should lay down a few more years or just been allowed to breathe longer.

Amazing silky finish with notes of Blackberry, Gooseberry, Red Currant, and Almond. The body is Full. The wine has Polished texture.
