from a well-preserved 375 with tons of bottle sediment. good nose of dark red fruits, moderate depth. wine is very effortless initially and just rolls right off the palette. medium-low acidity, and tannins are very light too. feels as if the fruit has faded initially but improves with air. Still excellent after left open in glass for 15 hours or so. A good wine and a wonderful bargain under $10.

Still surprisingly good for this much age on this level of wine. Deep ruby color, medium body and fruit still intact.

Drank WAY too late. Only good for cooking wine now. Not completely gone, surprisingly coherent. Just not pleasant 10 years too late.

Left it too long. Sigh. Undrinkable.

Good aged cabernet. Enjoyed this wine. Good bouquet, good fruit. Surprising how well this wine as aged.
