Had this wine back in November of 14 and rated it a 92. Judging from my notes it is about the same, if not a little better. Eleven years in and going strong. Still fresh with no signs of fading. Rich integrated flavors chocolate, black cherry, and maybe a little coffee. Very good on day 1 and day 2 with no noticeable drop off.

The overall freshness of this wine is amazing. The wine looks purple colored. The legs are medium. There is light sediment in the bottle. It smells like cherry, plum, coffee, vanilla and tobacco. It tastes like cherry, black currant (cassis), coffee and black olive. The body is medium. The wine has smooth texture. The wine finishes medium. Although not a long lingering finish, it was a nice memorable finish. The wine has medium acidity.

A surprisingly beautiful Cab that is mature and tasting well with a hint of strawberry. Drink now!

Check my past tasting notes. Just a super cab. It does not get any better than this.
