Ample fruit with soft tannins this well balanced wine is still holding up- drank with a selection of California Cabernets-almost everyone in our wine group thought it was a cab

Cellared at 55 since purchase upon release. Medium translucent surprisingly brightish ruby w pigment thinning ambering at rim w 2sh mm meniscus. Now the fun starts fresh pure thinly concentrated cherry raspberry cinnamon black tea notes on nose echoed on palate w lively focusing acids and clandestine tannins that come out of the background only at close leaving a nice astringency inviting this drinker to take another drag. Super juice and tremendous vindication for keeping a cellar.

Surprise surprise as this wine is alive and well-a little past it’s prime but plenty of fruit, smooth, soft tannins and slight musty smell. Tastes like a cab and enjoyed by all.

Otroligt av en snart 30-årig Geyserville, lagra dessa!
Utvecklad doft och mycket komplex smak, mogna röda och mörka bär.

Bill's. Silky red fruit, lighter bodied than the '92 before it and it acquired a lot of caramel as it sat in the glass. Excellent.
