January 14, 2024 - Bought from the list. Cork disintegrated but wine was in good shape. Mature cab - ready to drink. Smooth. Currant, pencil lead, a little menthol…fine grained / integrated tannins.

That said, I find Dunn built for age usually. Thought it was drinking great. I'll likely given the other 2007 a couple years and see where it is. Hope that helps...
