September 17, 2021 - Alive sand kicking at 33 years old!
Hints of brick underlying medium purple color.
Abundant fruit for a 1988.
Good structure and acidity (still). -
Elpaninaro Likes this wine:
September 16, 2021 - mature brick red, aged cassis, soft spice notes, on the palate a delicate and slightly sweet Cabernet at full maturity with genteel cassis notes and just a bit of beetroot, I have always found 1988 to be an attractive and understated vintage in California- but not one with the potential for a terribly long life, with that perspective this was a pleasant surprise- its superb balance still carries it well and while I would advise drinking soon there is still some old school beauty here, best enjoyed with a savory meal at this point- on its own where it can contribute to a harmonious and relaxed setting.
***, drink up
