Very deep ruby. Pronounced nose with aromas dominated by tar, dried black fruit, leather,coconut game, and resinous aromas. Fully developed wine. Palate is dry with high acidity. Medium plus fine tannins, medium alcohol, silky and refined body with pronounced flavors that mirror the aromas:leather, chocolate, charred wood, cooked plums and cherries. Finish is very satisfying and memorable. Excellent wine that is in its prime now. Can stay in the cellar for a fe

Drinking very well. Classic Napa fruit. Still good tannins on the finish.

Still quite good despite a problem with the cork. Strained and decanted it was still one of the best wines I have had.

Decanted. Deep rich blackberry with oak hints and lingering leather. Throughly enjoyed and wish I had another bottle in the cellar.

Nick’s 26th b’day dinner. Served with Blackened grilled ahi tuna medallions seared on the outside and pink on the inside.
Luscious rich deep gnarly old-school cab with dark fruit and almost a nutty dustiness, with a strong tannic grip holding it all together.
Glad we have more as this tastes like it will grow even more refined and elegant.
