Purchased a case. Total gamble...paid off. Beautiful notes of cassis, violets and red fruits. Well balanced. Everything you would expect from a value cali cab from a stellar vintage. Good qpr.

This bottle showed really well with grilled tenderloin. I will likely drink my last bottle in the next year but it should hold longer based on this showing.

2 hour decant had with sirloin and baked potatos. good pairing and last sip after by itself was the best.
Color looks like a merlot. Generous aroma, Mixed, but mainly red fruit (rasberry), med+ body, integrated tannins and no rough edges (besides 15+% alcohol). Wife liked it as well. Easy drinker and enough acid to enjoy with food. Best of the 3 bottles consumed so far.

Still drinking fairly well but I enjoyed it more 2 years ago. My sense is it's probably time to drink these up. Except that's tough as we drink very little cab!

Nice easy drinking Napa Cab. Not very complex, a nice nose, and with a little air - this is drinking well now and very enjoyable. 90 now and 91-92 likely in a few more years.
