Drank my last bottle of this wonderful Cab. This wine has provided lots of pleasure over the years but may just now be reaching peak enjoyment. the flavors were concentrated with dark fruits, licorice, leather and earth. Integrated tannin and great balance. If you still have these you are fortunate indeed.

Concentrated fruit in the nose and flavor, plums, blueberries, black cherries, blackberries and hints of floral. Full bodied, nice complexity, and a medium to long finish.

I am down to my last three. A little tight upon opening. Tasted and then decanted. This wine had far longer legs than previous tastings. Aggressive tannins mellowed with air. Sweet cherry, eucalyptus, aged cedar. While this wine could probably cellar longer, I don’t think it will benefit. Drink up

Dark red with heavy sediment. Sour cherry, red currant leather nose, and a little oxidative bottle stink. Medium body, tannin is apparent initially but fades as the cherry liqueur and sandElwood flavour takes over.
