December 22, 2018 - From Magnum.
Was thrilled to see that this bottle held up phenomenally. Still plenty of primary fruit along with some mature cedar and tobacco. Very much a napa cab, though not of the high alcohol viscous type more common today. Really a pleasure to drink. All that said, air wasn't its friend, and after two hours open it started a slow decline towards simplicity (though perhaps it was me and not the wine?!?). -

July 15, 2018 - My last bottle. Probably on downside of peak but still delicious classic Napa Cab.
