This wine was a WOW for me. Great black cherry flavor, nose was superb. Had with a big chunk steak and it went wonderful. Have a little left for some dark chocolate. If you can get your hands on a bottle don't hesitate..

decanted for about 45mins, looked young still, a good deep rich purple colour to the rim, velvety and smooth, a touch of tanin still left to be integrated, lovely wafts of graphite on the nose, good rich black currents on the palate with some secondary flavours just started to develop, still some time left on this wine in my opinion, very good indeed.

Started out with a licorice taste. Mellowed to a nice Black cherry flavor. A really nice typical Cal. Cab.

Wonderful black current and berry flavor. Dark rich purple color. This has a great smooth finish. Very good cab.

Very nice cab. Fruit was a little thin which is indicative of the vintage year. The 1999 and 2001 were much better balanced.
