June 27, 2021 - Monthly Tasting Group: Bordeaux and Cabs 2009 and Older (Chez Dalluge, MN): This popped up late in the night, a nicely aged wine that still has something to give. Just a taste and it didn't leave much of an impression which may be unfair. Had this last 6 years ago, and my impression was that it's hanging in there.

November 19, 2020 - Consumed 2 bottles this week. Now 26 years old, it was no surprise that this once fine Napa Cab was past its prime, but it still had really nice cassis fruit, and hearty cedar & cigar / spice box aromas, so it is in a phase of graceful degradation. Ten years ago, this true Bordeaux-blend (the five grape varieties) greatly impressed me and I will buy their recent vintages without hesitation. The Andrus family should be proud of this strong effort.

April 23, 2015 - A Decadent Night of 1990's Napa Cabs and Bordeaux (Chez Dalluge, MN): Very dark red/purple color. PNP, drank 1 glass over 4 hours plus. Lots of vanillin with plenty of dense black fruits, and some cedarwood. The palate is pretty chewy, full bodied, black fruits, not well defined, vanilla, cedar, sour fruit, firm slightly grippy tannins. Feels really young despite its 20+ years. I don't think this will get better, drink now.
