Very integrated tannins, acids getting a little out of whack. Thin palate. Definitely over the hill, but still holding together. Fun while it lasted. This was a young, fresh Bordeaux that laid down too long.

Actually quite nice - opened for a small gathering and everyone enjoyed the dark, plump fruit. Didn't seem weak or tired at all, definitely could tell it had some years on it, though. Two to go!

Garnet red color. Spice, cedar forest and red berry scent. Medium body, currant, mineral and a little funk taste, with a thin mid-palate and slightly tart tannins.

If anything, I could say that this Cab was weird.
