November 28, 2019 - Showing remarkably well for its age and provenance. Still has some light primary fruit notes, baked and stewed red and black fruits, earthy.

April 9, 2011 - I am stunned! This wine has held up remarkably well for an $8 cab and I've really been holding onto it this long just for fun.
Minimal brixing. Big sulphur on the nose masking cherries, hay, and a touch of menthol. Palate started with bright cherry and pretty much dropped off after that. High acids brought in a very tart finish that lingered way too long.
I recall at the time I bought this it was a great every day drinker. Certainly not a great wine now, but it was a fun aging experiment.
