Was the best of the five year vertical of Cab’s. Lush and balanced, I was very surprised how deep the fruit was. In a great place right now so no need to wait.

Lovely wine, maybe a tiny bit past peak but drinking beautifully. Decanted 2.5/3hours. Luscious opening giving way to a bright, elegant mid note with elements of tappenade, salt, current, and herbs. Finish was moderately lengthen, but did not “go for a long time”. Drink now, don’t hold!

July 6, 2023. Drank from Bin North 11 with Cory, Emma, Mike, Liv and Aline. Gift from Marc. Cork and oak nose. Deep dark purple. Soft even full body leather dry and chalk touch of cherry. Lovely mature wine. 9.4/10.

93 points. Beautiful opening and extended length between the opening and the mid notes. The middle had some dark fruit (cherry, plum) and the finish was mid-length with a little bit more spice/heat then I like. Maybe was best drank a year ago, but still presenting nicely. That said, I intend to finish drinking the others I have from 2004 over the next 12 months.
