I did not even know I had this in my cellar. Stumbled upon it, and opened it with some friends and family. Wow. The bottle was delicious. Ripe perfect fruit. THE right time to drink. Paired incredibly well with my home-made lamb stew and my father-in-law's delicious chili. Helped get us all in the mood to sing karaoke, which we did until 1:30 in the morning. A fantastic wine for a fantastic night. Cheers!!

Classic California Cabernet. At this stage the red fruit is a bit muddled and hard to distinguish but the mouthfeel is pure velvet. Just as lovely as the first bottle. The finish goes on for 45+ seconds. Big wine, absolutely perfect.

Muddled red fruits, still has that velvety mouth feel that goes on and on. Structure is perfect as is the balance, big wine but not over the top. Beautiful wine that can be drunk over the next five to ten years. Amazing, I'm happy I still have half a case.

I previously thought this was mediocre, but aged has been quite good for it.

Too much oak dried it out and took away all character.
