This is excellent Cab. Perhaps as the result of maturing in my cellar for many years. It is dark red, full bodied, with powerful rich fruit accompanied by strong but balanced tannins and acidity. It needed about 20 minutes to breathe and settle down and then wow! Worth researching whether the winery is still making this wine. Hope so.

Looking at the restrained label and plain cork, it appears that this was an experiment (which has, to my taste, been justified)
Supple tannins, dark fruit, touch of cedar, but an underlying balance that keeps on and on
Open three hours, decanted 90 minutes, served at 64F. Unusually adaptable with soft and hard cheese

Nose of light cedar and graphite
Gentle tannins, very pronounced working alongside smooth layers of juiciness
Give several years to peak
