This bottle really demonstrated the belief that the 97s didn't age well. Very faded, scant tannins, but what was left was tasty. I'd avoid this vintage in aged Napa Cabs.

Cork disintegrated on removal. Flavor still good. Color of ruby. Good complex flavor. Well integrated. Very good flavor but not great.

Fabulous. Cherry & mocha. Smooth. Excellent wine. Savored every sip. Wish we had another bottle.

Consistent notes from the last bottle. Cedar, pencil lead, flowers, cherry and coffee/chocolate notes. Very focused with well integrated tannins.
