  Incredible bottle, still very fruit forward for the age. Definitely has some life left in it.

  PnP and into a decanter. Initially I thought this was flawed but the funk wore off after 15 min in the decanter. Good, not great, past its prime. The fruit is fading and nice tertiaries are coming into play. The is bordering on the line where my gray zone for CA cabernet lies. Secondary market purchase so provenance is questionable.

  Nice ruby color, tannins resolved. Light leather on nose. Well balanced with the right amount of wine. Nice medium sized body. Medium to short finish.
  
  Overall a great wine. I believe there is no benefit to have additional cellar time, but the are no signs of decline.

  Decanted 1 hr before the first taste. Alive with silky tannins, smoke, leather, mocha, dark cherry, burnt chocolate, and a hint of metal. Long finish. I think this is peaking now.

  Initially rather soft and sweet-not something I'd usually characterize in a big Napa cab right out of the bottle. Over the next two hours it brought forth flavors of cherry-charcoal, blueberry and other dark fruits, with minerality notes that were beautifully complimentary, and not likely to get flabby anytime soon as is probably the risk for '07 Napa fruit.
  
  Should mature and drink well at least through 2019.
