  Superb bottle. Not only was the label pristine, but it had 3 mm of ullage, and it was difficult to imagine any amber edge. Black currants, and a medley other dark fruits with touch of tobacco. Tasted wonderful and like it had another decade or two left and was maybe not a point. Were it not for the professional reviews I had read, I would have likely scored it a 95, but I let them influence my score. Regardless, a truly excellent bottle of wine from what was one of Napa's top echelon winemakers showing he could more than Zinfandel. A toast to the recently deceased Mike Grgich.

  Decanted for an hour. Subtle hints of dark sweet fruit on the nose. At first the tannins were present but not too grippy, some dark fruit and pepper. After two to three hours the wine opened up. Baked blueberry and plum with a hint of vanilla some leather, the tannins soft and mellow. I am sorry I did not buy more.

  This bottle, my last, has not appeared to budge in the last five years. Tastes like it’s five or six years old, not 15. Plenty fiery, lots of life it would seem. Rich leather, plum skins, grip in abundance. I thought based on my last note that there might be some risk in holding. I no longer think that. Five more seems safe; ten seems likely; I wouldn’t rule out more than 10.
