This was a beautiful bottle of wine! Ready to drink now but could also do well laying down for a few more years. We had it decant for a couple of hours and it opened up beautifully after each sip and swirl.

Some say that the 2003's have faded. If that's true, these have been the exception that proves the rule. Still benefits from 30+ minutes of air, then drinks nicely.

Napa cab all the way. Smoke, earth, black cherries and other bright fruits carry through to the palate. Well balanced but not deeply complex. If you are a napa cab lover that likes the fruitier wines this is 94pts.

This has mellowed out nicely. Oak is there but no longer intrusive. Still lacks a long finish but was perfect with steak.
