Pleasant enough in terms of flavour but the alcohol is too hot

No doubt a great Napa Cabernet, but this bottles is showing some age. Enjoyable, fully integrated and still some structure, but the fruit has mellowed almost too much for my taste. A lot of cedar and an almost spiciness. Nice wine, but I suspect I would have preferred it a year or two ago.

Much more youthful, much more fruit left, and the spiciness I noticed before was more of a very sweet tobacco. Perhaps the initial bottle was a bit flawed? I would have scored this bottle a 94 tonight and said it was in its prime drinking window
