Decanted for 90 minutes. Drinking very well right now, great complex Kronos flavor profile, well balanced of deeper ripe fruit and more delicate floral tones, well integrated acidity and minerality and resolved tannins.

Similar to last bottle. Dark color. Wonderful dark fruit on the nose and I picked up some nice spices. Great acidity to handle the beef, and dark fruit with smooth tannins. This is not showing much age, other than it may have smoothed out from when it was young. (I didn't try it back then). I think CT drinking window is cutting it short several years.

OMG. Does Corison ever get old? This is aging wonderfully. Dark color with no bricking. Great dark fruit on the nose. Same fruit on the palate with smooth tannins. Nice long finish. Paired well with some grilled porterhouse steaks.

Still showing nice fruit. Aging very well. Dark color. Nose of dark fruits. Nice acidity and smooth tannins. Went well with grilled ribeye. Finished off the last glasses on their own. Glad I have a few more bottles.

(Corison Cabernet Sauvignon Kronos Vineyard) The warmth of the vintage is reflected in the fruit—blackberry, black cherry, boysenberry—yet the alcohol level stays below 14%, so one can enjoy all those lovely currant and spice flavors without getting fatigued. A gorgeous wine, fun to drink now, that will live on for years. Terroir: Kronos Vineyard

Not so impressive. Fruits were muted and tannins had faded.
