Truly excellent Cab, this was our only bottle gifted to us by our good friends in Bodega Bay. Five minutes in the glass was helpful but not essential. The community end-date of this year is wildly off-base. Suggesting 2024 at a minimum.

Drank from a magnum. Beautiful wine with serious power behind it. Medium tannins are still present and a decant helped. Next day was much the same. Black and red fruit abundant. Hints of pepper on the finish. As a prior reviewer noted, I've had the 2011 and enjoyed it more than the 2010 as well. Odd. Still a tasty wine. Drink now-2022.

Had this the same night as the 2011. Interesting that everyone preferred the 2011. Given the year, it surprised us. This still drank well with tobacco and dark berries on the nose. Dark cherries and menthol on the palate for the 2010. Another nice Sequoia Tonella.
