1999 California Cabernet Sauvignon all acquired by Neil shortly after release.
Perfect color and appearance. Cassis and cedar nose. Good balance.

Good color and appearance. Slight stemmy nose but also had pleasant spicy component. Black cherry and blackberry flavors. Nice finish.
Beautiful dark color. Outstanding nose; everything a California Cab Sauv should be. Lingering finish. An excellent wine that will drink well for another 5 years.
Good color and appearance. Dusty nose and a little alcoholic smell. Tannis still present. Fruit ok but not outstanding.
Classic Arrowood nose and taste. An excellent wine.
Wow! An great wine. Dark color and appearance. Incredibly complex nose. Layers of flavor. Long finish. Will be good for 7 - 10 years longer.
