Utterly delightful! This 1996 Bordeaux-like blend at approximately 20 years of age proved once again that well made aged Napa CABs perform exactly as designed. Perfectly smooth, silky and slightly lush, with minimal fruit. Your guests will enjoy this unique find!

Nice treat-bright acidity and light tannins, plum, dark cherry. Truly a blast from the past!

An enjoyable, quality bottle that is mostly resolved. This must have experienced lots of new oak because it remains too lush and plush

Have to agree with Nerdy boy - lush, beautiful, rounded Bordeaux like. Mountain fruit can make the long haul. Thoroughly enjoyable.

Cedar, cigarbox with an obvious maturity. If you have this wine I would drink up.
