Still holding up well in spite of its advanced years. Turning a bit raisin and prune-ish but flavors of Rutherford are not yet gone. A solid and well-built wine.

Drinking well. Soft, round mouthfeel with very fine tannins. Presents cherry with a hint of current. No evidence of oak. Medium length finish. Plan on drinking the remaining bottles over the next 1 - 2 years.

Decanted 1hour. Very nice. Lush round dark berry fruit, subtle minerality. Hints of strawberry up front and cocoa on the finish. Medium to medium long finish. Still some structure but nicely balanced. Drink now or in next 1-2 years.

Stunning example of a Rutherford C/S in it's prime.
