What a great find! I bought this on the suggestion of the wine guy at the store. BIG wine with great complexity. Fruit forward but not over the top. Great mid palette and strong finish with fine tannins.

Not as good as the first time I drank this bottle. Bright slightly ripe cherry mixed with some black currant, took some time to open up once it did nice fruit forword wine, integrated well with medium minerality and a nice bit of vanilla. Has good structure and is drinking well it has a few years to go, missing a little backbone. Light green tannins with a medium to long finish. Good cab for the money.

Good. But pretty acidic. Possibly a bit past it's peak. The 2007 tasted side-by-side was great.

Nice cherry and currant, a bit of brown sugar or mocha, subtle green tannins.
