9th Annual Holiday Dinner and Cellar Raid (Naperville, IL): Part of wine dinner and cellar raid so did not take detailed notes. The last of 6 bottles that I've been following over the last nine years. This had always been one of my favorite Cab Fran's but the last bottle seemed like it was over the hill. Must have been bottle variation as this one was spot on. Majority of guests thought this was the best of the Cab Franc's

Very good fruit coming through but laking a little in acidity and no tannins left at all. Drinking well but I don't see this getting any better and definitely on the tail end of the evolution. I have one bttle left and this needs to be drunk sooner rather than later
