Community Tasting Note

• wine guy wrote: 94 points

  January 7, 2008 - Decanted for an hour before serving with steak. The color is a dark purple. Intitial nose had blackberry and cedar. Secondary mint and chocolate were detected on the palate. It's a full wine without being heavy. As always, the last couple of sips were the best. I'd say it still has lots of life ahead, although you wouldn't be "chewing" it if you wanted to drink it now. The tannins are perfectly integrated at this point. After 3 hours, it was still holding together nicely. This is a really nice CA cab. I'd give it a 94 score.
