Decanted 3 hrs. Likely was ready at 1. Complex wine with modest fruit flavors. Smooth and low tannins. Could be at its peak. Went well with red meat sauce.

Classic Napa Cab! At a good age, from a good year (I think). After about a half hour of the bottle being open, I swirled and sniffed SO much red fruit, flowers, a bit of oak. Upon sipping, this was really the food of the gods. Not trying to impress, just impressing as is. Drink now, maybe 2-3 more years at this peak.

Let decant for 30min. Still tastes luscious but not much of the deep finish I remember. Have one more bottle but don’t think it will have much longer until that’s drunk too.

Very enjoyable. Classic Napa cab - terrific concentration and purity. Not too complex but enough to hold your attention. Garnet colored. The legs are medium. There is no sediment in the bottle. It smells like blackberry, blueberry and vanilla. The body is medium/full. The wine finishes medium length. The wine has low acidity.
