Another great bottle of Diamond Mountain Cab. Been drinking a lot of this wine of various vintages recently. Just one left of this wine. Hope to have my last before the year concludes.

Needs at least an hour decant. The nose jumps out of the bottle and decanter. Modest sediment in the bottle, beautiful dark color with no bricking. Medium body with a fairly persistent finish. Nice ripe, sweet blackberry, black current, coffee, mocha and subtle menthol flavors. The only drawback is a decidedly bitter edge that has developed that i expect will intensify over time thus reducing this from a 94/95 point wine to a 90/91.

I thought this bottle was incredible. We decanted for an hour and the bottle was ready to drink. This was the smoothest Hall I have ever drank. It's definitely a fruit forward wine but it's not over the top and there wasn't much heat like some of the other bottles I have drank from them. I'm going to try and find more of these as I was so impressed with the Diamond Mountain Fruit.

Getting better with age. Consistent with past notes but maybe getting a bit better. A sweet nose on opening with sour cherry notes, chewy tannins and a long juicy finish.

The wine seems past its prime. Wine was still good but too much raisin. This was my last bottle, and it was a disappointment.
