Drank with xmas meal. Surprisingly good. Red fruit still there, along with some barnyard & earthy elements. Tannins fully resolved. fairly decent length, not particularly complex or memorable but delighted that this wine hadn't turned to vinegar. Drink now

Black cherry and toasty cedar. Very food friendly. Well balanced acidity makes this very food friendly. Subtle earth comes in on the finish. Dry tannins.

Missed the peak by a couple years. Probably a 90 or 91 otherwise. Nice balance and overall good quality, but the zing was gone. It was flat by a year or two. Nothing extraordinary so didn't miss too much.

A very nice, smooth Sonoma cab. A good, approachable red that is not past it's prime at 14 years.
