This wine has really aged well. Drinking beautifully at 20 years old. Dark fruit on the nose with a hint of mocha. The palate was dark berries, plums, fig, tobacco and sandalwood. The finish was long. Really enjoyable served with steak and brisket.

Cola and cocoa nose over dark fruit suggest a palate more mature than it actually is. Better than medium bodied, very nice anise, cedar, menthol and black cherry with a pleasantly green and slightly drying finish. Obviously time to enjoy.

Smooth and well balenced. Mature fruit and nicely integrated oak. This is a classic Napa cab. No hurry but drinking well now.
