Pnp. A little closed upon opening but evolved rapidly. The nose was initially closed but got expressive quickly. The front of the nose is prune, plus juniper and eucalyptus, cigar box, light cedar /balsa, blueberry, vanilla bean. Palate is blueberry acai, followed by savory notes, leather.
It's brilliant. A real joy. But we think it's going to evolve. Go ahead and drink it but with some decanting or over time. But it's worth waiting a few for. It should evolve for a long time.
After 1.5 hours in a decanter this thing really opened up. 96 - 97 points. Amazing nose. Just crazy good.

Wonderful condition, richness and strength. A delightful wine with such age for a California Cab.
Nice overall condition, smoothness and palatability.

After several years in controlled storage, broke out bottle #2 of 6. Unfortunately, it was corked. :(
