    November 12, 2023 - Solid mountain Napa cab.

    Beautiful deep ruby color with a nose full of violets and cassis, peppery spice, forest floor, cedar wood, with a nice long finish ending with a lingering note of flowers and dark berries.

    It’s drinking perfectly now. Guess my prediction that it would last worked out just fine. Lol.

    January 1, 2023 - Wow, who would believe that a $40 bottle of wine would hang together this well over 15 years plus. Yes, it’s very mature, but as a pop and pour, it’s fantastic still had the body to hold up very well to a wagyu & venison burger.
