Not great notes. Popped & poured. Dark garnet color. Red fruits, vanilla & a hint of oak on the nose. Medium to heavy palate. Great dark fruit flavors and oaky finish. Finish was medium. I liked it quite a bit.

Cork held but all in all it was held way past its prime. Inherited cellar and this was on the list of consume now.

Drinking so well 8 years later. Still more years left on this. Such a reliable expression of a Napa Cab
