Beautiful cabernet with a big powerful nose that makes you think you have opened this wine too soon. Two hours of decant yields a delicious wine that makes it a pleasure to drink. I will wait another five years to open the next one. The wine evolved throughout the evening, pared perfectly with a grilled rack of lamb.

Ready to drink, at it's peak. I bought this wine in Los Alamos several years ago from Kurt Russels' sister. I would assume most bottles are gone at this point given their is only one other tasting note from seven years ago. The wine was wonderful and full of surprises. The nose was cherry cola with very inticing ferfume. Fully mature in the mouth, could have believed it was a Beaune if tasted blind. In the end the earthy base is cleary Cali pinot and a substancial pleasure. Loved it.

Beautiful Chardonnay, balanced and well integrated. The fruit to oak interface is striking. This reminded me of a Puligny Montrachet, should drink well for another ten years and is excellent now.
