  Low expectations for this bottle after all these years, but it surprised. Decanted two hours, sampled, then back in sealed bottle overnight. Both intervals revealed very solid tastings. Wishing we saved another.

  For my palette this was still way too young. Everything about it was far too primary for me.

  Finishing up my last bottle of this beauty with a prime ribeye steak. Excellent on all counts. Still in its prime, but I'd be drinking if you enjoy a younger, more vibrant wine.

  Nothing to add from my earlier note, but if anything even better now. This stands out from the standard Napa cabernet crowd.

  Great example of a more restrained style of Napa Cab, now reaching a stage where it becomes more refined and complex. Still has the sweet Napa fruit, and tha tannin is still evident, but this is a really nice wine, and will last for a another decade!
