Community Tasting Note

92 Points

Sunday, September 19, 2010 - cork fell apart but looks ok; decanted for one hour (minor sediment); important deep plum and clean earth on the nose; red currant and sl tart red and black plum; cedar and tannins not quite integrated; medium mid palate; big but not ponderous; still has that firmness that the 99 cali cabs often show; didnt quite match with the bbq skirt steak with a sl sweet teriyaki sauce (which made it seem v sl sour)
