Tight dark color with an orange hue. Delicate, yet rustic nose with earth, rosebush, blackcurrant and prunes. On the palate there is dark berries, a vegetable note and some oak. Good structure, with the fruit to carry it. Some clean blackcurrant with leafs first, cigarbox and tobaco on the midpalate, and prunes on the finish. Good length.

1987 Cabernet Retrospective, Part 4 (Tom's house in Palo Alto, California): The nose is a little bit sweet, but still gorgeous! Red berries, bacon. Long finish. Tasted blind.
