The final of 12 bottles I have owned for half of the wine's life, and despite it being "past its drinking window" the wine held up very well. The cabernet retains its distinct typicity, with good berries and tobacco on the palate. Somewhat soft, although some tannin remains to provide structure. Would expect a slow decline only. Excellent and appealing colour still too.
