  Don't recall all notes, but it had beautiful dark fruit, not overpowering tannins, plush mouthfeel, a little earthiness to it. Great cab much more to my liking from California.

  Rounding into good form. Will hold two more bottles at least through next summer.

  Popped and slow-ox for an hour or so, then drank. Agree with other notes here, good basic Napa cab that is drinking well now. Opened up nicely with air and further in the glass. Cherry, dark fruit, hint of oak. Plush mouthfeel, just a faint amount of famed "Rutherford dust." Matched up well with grilled ribeye. Nothing extraordinary but very drinkable and for the price ($22 on LastBottle) this is a great weekday / everyday bottle.
