In a good spot. Decanted for 3 hrs. Drank over 90 mins with flank steak. A touch of (enjoyable) funk. Notes of pine needles/eucalyptus. Fine tannins. Good acidity. Red fruited.

The cork completely disintegrated. Had to bust out the decanter and filter.
The color is definitely softening up. The nose is fresh cut cedar and classic California Cabernet fruit. This has definitely matured well and there's no reason not to open these now and enjoy them. I wish I had more. Mature cassis and very strong redwood shavings. This was a crowd pleaser as everybody enjoyed it.
