Held up well for being over the hill. Definitely grapey with not a lot going on in terms of secondary flavors or complexity, but drinkable over three nights under pump.

Wow! I found nine bottles in the back of my cellar. I had not had this wine in over four years. It is starting to really show its age and needs to be consumed soon. Has lost much of its original fruit but still very smooth. A wonderful weeknight wine. I wish Sparky was still making this cabernet because it was one of the best value wines ever!

Opened and placed in decanter with funnel to filter wine. Let stand in decanter for 20 minutes. Nice nose, plum forward, nice smooth finish although not very long. A bit ofcherry at the end. Not disappointed in the least!
