Dark red, full bodied, rich dark berry fruit, a bit of leather, very well integrated tannins, an excellent fully matured Cab. Needed only one hour of decant. If you have a bottle this is time to drink it up.

Deep full bodied ox-blood Dark fruit, musty, earthy Thick, creamy. fruit leather, well balanced, medium plus finish The wine seems to be at its optimum. It may get marginally better in future years. Good stuff for the price.

Really nice very big wine! Brought a bottle to a restaurant with some friends and it drank very nicely but was only just starting to open up at the end of the bottle. Should be decanted 2-4 hours ahead of time and could use a few more years in the cellar!

A touch of funky tone (scorched earth?) kept me from loving the wine. For an 07 this isn't what you would expect. I think the more recent vintages are better.

Nice drinking and very well balanced. Fruit forward but not a fruit bomb -- drinking great now.
