Sadly my last 2004, but it was excellent. I had one about a year ago and my notes said it was a bit tired. Not the case with this one. Drank just like a good 16yr old Napa cab should. Plenty of layers a structure. Drank it over 6 hrs and it stayed consistent the whole time.

(CONN VALLEY RESERVE CABERNET SAUVIGNON) #1; (by NathanN & Julius) COLOR-dark; NOSE-expected more Oak; dry cellar cobweb aspect; apricot component; TASTE-extremely well made, beautiful mouthfeel, great roundness, nice Cherry Cola aspect; coats your entire palate; great tannins, firm grip, silky finish; like Caymus & Opus One for half the price; RP-93; GV-92+

This is quite balanced and tasty. An outstanding wine, but I would not put it in the 'gorgeous' category... ;)

As previously noted. Will not improve, but could hold a little while.

Short decant but wine drank quite nicely. Still lots of flavor and very little color loss. Amazing how well this has aged.

Softer than the 2016 Right Bank. More smoky. This one is better with food than 2016 Right Bank
