In a great place. Huge milk chocolate and vanilla on the nose. Well balanced in the mouth with silky tannins, moderate fruit, and decent freshness. Cassis, toasty cedar, and green pepper. Solid finish.
Probably just past peak and time to drink up. My last bottle of five.

A real crowd pleaser. Dark fruit, must and alcohol aroma. Lush blackberry and tar flavors. Fully body and nice integrated flavors. Soft tannin with decent acidity. Lengthy finish.

A nice bottle. Plenty of black fruits, nicely layered with hints of red fruit, which is odd for a 100% cab from the Napa floor. Not too much Oak. Tannins have some density but are pliable and smooth enough. Some dried herbs and bits of hard leather.

Dark color and blackberry overtones. Not too tannic with a nice reasonably long finish.
