Based on the other comments, another year of age for this wine has done it good. My wife and I uncorked a bottle last night after receiving a shipment from wine.woot in the last month. It was fabulous: some nice blackberry type smells on the nose, the palate had a great peppery taste, and it had a very long and satisfying finish. The QPR for this wine is off the chains. This is a fantastic wine, and I'm completely distraught that I only have four more bottles of it.

Drinks young. Seems like it will be nice if it lays down for a couple of years...surprising for a 2007 at this point. Everything is there to expect this to develop into a very nice wine.

This isn't a pop and pour wine. It was very tight w/o decanting. It opened up and really mellowed a couple hours after opening. It will be interesting to see if it will evolve if it sits in the cellar.

This wine continues to get better. Drink now or for the next 2-3 years.

This was a great approachable cab for this ZIN girl. Fruit forward but with a nice light tannic finish. Yum

Very approachable cab! Nice fruit forward with smooth tannic finish that's not over powering.

Oustanding QPR here. Rich, full, fruity cab with nice nose and moderate tannins on the finish. We all liked it and I wish I had more.
