Felt a bit disjointed to me, a little too much fruit (surprising at 11 years, wonder how much of a fruit bomb this was at release). Too little structure, felt a bit flabby. I think this would have performed better a few years ago.

Very nice aged cab, medium bodied. Among the best of half dozen bottles. Cassis, chocolate, slight earth and nice oak finish. A little tight on the opening so let breathe for 30-60 min.

- Crimsom color with fast forming legs. It's balanced with a medium body. Smooth texture with a medium finish - Had it with pasta and meat sauce. Very nice together. Looking forward to the next bottle.

Supple smooth tannins. Hints of cocoa on the finish. Tannins have soften and matured. Delightful! Ripe berry fruit. Still stays true to Cabernet Sauvignon characteristics.

May have let this go too long. Rich fruit of blackberry and black cherry. Overly oaked for my tastes.
