Opened 4 hrs ahead and decanted 2 hrs ahead of dinner. Delicious cab. Dark cherry and prune fruit, earthy and stony minerality, cedar, tobacco, balanced by polished tannins and medium acidity. Wonderful Napa cab!!!

Decanted 3 hours before dinner. Very smooth, but tannins still made it dry on the palette. This wine could lay down for a couple more years. Nevertheless, it paired beautifully with a NY strip.

18 months later, and with a two hour decanting - this wine is ready to drink. A solid Napa Cab with rich dark fruit and smoothed out tannins. Wonder if additional time will bring added depth of flavors and complexity. At this point, moderate QPR.

Exceedingly good right now. More pretty than powerful but full of nice flavors.
