This bottle was clearly past its prime. Certainly drinkable but a bit flat.

So glad to taste this against the 2014, if only to save my 2013 from infanticide.Color and clarity were still youthful and bright. 5Decadent nose. Complete and riveting. Nearly perfect. 13Palate is equally enchanting. Still youthful enough to make me wish I owned more... Nothing missing for Napa. 18Typical of the region and nearly as good as it gets. One of the best Napa CS I have tasted. 9
This is a delicious Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa Valley. Spicy and interesting. Full bodied with medium acidity. Showing black fruits with cedar, vanilla, leather, spices, earth, dark chocolates, coffee, peppercorn, earth and sweet spices. Nice length on the finish with fine grained tannins.This 16 year old tastes very fresh, and smells young too. Showing great complexity with a nice mouthfeel. Good right out of the bottle, and better after 2 hours of airtime.I had it blind, and guessed Napa Cabernet 2015. Missed it by a decade. So interesting. A little past its peak, but still delicious. I had the 2014 not too long ago, and it was drinking much better. Good by itself or with food. I paired it with a Charcuterie board of meats and cheeses. 14.4% alcohol by volume. 92 points.$100.
2006. Held up well even though we were late in drinking
Same as previous notes.
