This isn't for me. Wine was balanced and took about an hour to evolve. Fruit was practically not there. All secondary - cedar, spice box, dried cranberry, leather, earth. Color is dark ruby. Smelled like, well, old wine. It was holding very well together and folks who like older bordeaux would enjoy this a lot more than i did.

Absolutely delicious. The wine has aged perfectly and all its components came together like a symphony. The lovely red and dark fruits have evolved and matured gracefully and make this a moreish wine.

One of the best purchases i have ever made. It has aged incredibly well with a deep ruby color, long legs, satiny smooth finish and full bodied. It has a solid fruit taste with a modest oak finish. Im just sorry that this is the last one!

Assez raffiné et équilibré pour un cab calif. Bien tenu 14 ans sans peine, comme quoi...

Rather stiff and somewhat tart. Not my favorite.
