Huge wine. Dark crimson colour. Even with decanting the sediment in the wine was prevalent through all glasses. Loads of dust for those that enjoy that attribute. Dark stewed cherries, brandy, chocolate. Enjoyable, but not amazing.

Found in cellar and decided to drink tonight with some grilled ribeyes. Pnp and drank over a couple hours. Very solid napa cab for the price range from a good producer and still kicking. Tannins well integrated, dark fruit, vanilla, spices, cocoa. Long finish.

2 hour decant (mag decanter). Nose: Very red fruited aromas with some spice. Palate: Much of the youthful fruit has dissipated but this still has some life. Glad I opened this as it’s starting to ride off into the sunset. This last bottle is 91 but the previous one (notes on 7/10/20) was 92+. Drink up if you have any.
