  Opened a magnum for extended family dinner. Was pleasantly surprised by how well the wine has held up. Fruit mostly gone but still a hint of dark berries. Dense red/purple color. Still amazing structure with earth tones, graphite, leather and minerality. Lasted for several hours.

  This one was built for aging. Had a case from release and it was tannic and almost undrinkable. Finally it has reached its potential and the tannis have resolved and left a nicely aged cabernet with plenty of fruit and wonderful integrated flavors. This is an example of the old style of California wine making. The color was ruby red with very slight bricking at the edges. Old cabernet nose with fruit still showing. Blackberrys and cassis on the palate. Two bottles left and no rush to drink up.
