  This needed 10 hours to open fully but blossomed quite wonderfully with air.

  Wow - opened this up and let it decant for 4 hours while cooking dinner. A little muted on the nose but really opened up with time and it lingered on the palate with notes of porcini and lovely sweet berries on the finish. Paired with buttermilk brined Roast Turkey, Crown Roast of Lamb w italian sausage and cranberry stuffing and Mushroom Wellington - it went down a treat!
  
  Looking at my last tasting note I'm hoping it was a one off and I look forward to the other 9 or so in my cellar over the coming years.

  Brought to a restaurant, decanted for a half-hour. Excellent Napa valley floor Cab, nice balance, youthful but not too young; drinking well now, but will likely improve with time, so drink or hold.

  Tignt tart nose and on the palate; dark black fruit, blackberry but some blue berry, tight pencil lead, heavy oak with hints of tobacco. Perhaps this is not the best bottle, but it did not taste corked. We hope the rest are better.
