  Poised, deep and well balanced. Drinking very well!

  Not as finessed as other Kelly Fleming Cabs, so this was a disappointment.
  
  Certainly not bad, but as I sometimes say, "Everything that is wrong with many California wines." Overripe, over extracted, too much alcohol (14.7%.)
  
  Gave it 45 minutes of air before tasting. After another hour there was some green/stemmy characteristics in the finish that may not resolve.
  
  * Revisited two days later (bottle was gassed.) Not drinkable. The fruit turned pruney and the stemminess was not tolerable. Yeast spoilage?

  Decanted briefly. Quite a nice high-toned Calistoga Cab with savory red and black fruit, licorice, and earth. Showing well now.
