    February 10, 2021 - Decanted, nice nose of dark berries, plenty of fruit, perfect balance, medium to long finish. Doubt that it is improving but very nice now.
    Note: nose and flavors were much better after 3 hours of airtime.

    September 12, 2019 - Supposedly years beyond its drink by date. Opened and poured with little airing. It opened up nicely after about a half hour and a serving of lamb. Fruit good for its age, good color. A very nice mature Napa cab.

    May 21, 2019 - Had 2001 and 2013 before. This bottle was very tired unfortunately....Showing signs of madeira, xerez and port. Not oxidized just yet but definitely moving there((

    October 20, 2018 - The Papies 25th Anniversary Dinner & 1993 Vintage Horizontal (Hide, London): 1 Magnum and 1 3L on the day, both decanted for a good 2 hours.
    25 years young, still with good ripe feel, good rich fruit across. Dark fruited on the nose, proper old school Napa, light smoky edge and so much more focused on the fruit than the Togni 1993 we had ( Papies 95). Tobacco feel and light cedar completes the symphony, but the dark fruit is what one will remember. 92 and still has miles in the tank.
