From glass. Nose at first cool and somewhat vegetal, followed by a sense of being suspended from a helicopter and having your nose over a lake of cool, creamy, mellow cab fruit - like there's a lot there, but it's a bit far away. Similar, delicious palate. Rather youthful still, I would say; tannins still gripping. Quite nice indeed. Maybe just another hour or so in glass for it to warm up?

Stunning, really, not much sign of age. The new oak has matured into a work of Napa art. This is drinking at apex now, seriously good juice here for a basement $$ Wow-

Amazing Napa Cabernet Sauvignon. French style. Beautiful color, flavor and slight tannins with nice acid.

Huge improvement over the last bottle. Still stacked and ripe, I'd give this another 2-4 years.
