  Very nice Napa Cab. Full body, hits all the marks. As always, overpriced for the quality. Comparable to a well made Bordeaux blend from the Haut Medoc, but at 3x to 4x the price of the Bordeaux. Good wine, poor QPR. Gift from family... I truly do appreciate the thought, but...

  One-hour decant through a screened and aerating funnel. Fairly dark from bowl to rim. No sediment as of now. Classic Cabernet Sauvignon nose: black currant, vanilla, and peppercorn. Same in the mouth. Very strong; quite deep. A touch of herbs at the end of a long finish. Ready to go but will last a while.
  
  Since my note of 12-19-2019, the cherries had morphed into black currant but otherwise the profile not all that different, though a touch smoother.

  Not a bad wine by any stretch of the imagination BUT not very compelling either
