Still alive and in decent shape! Fully mature, the tannin is well integrated and the wine is showing some good tertiary character. Smokey tobacco, graphite. Fruit is diminished as expected. Not quite over the hill, but I wouldn't wait much longer to get to them. Had never seen this producer before and I'm not sure if they still make wine.

Surprised these are drinking so well. They're not powerhouse Cabernets, but there's a subtle pleasure -- lots of fruit still, earth, eucalyptus, and plenty of acidity. Tannins fully resolved.
