With Kathy and Miranda at home at dinner, pizza. Still an extremely dark ruby – purple; nearly opaque. Big fleshy banquet of fruit, oak, and alcohol. Huge, full-bodied wine on the palate; a real mouthful. Big and alcoholic. 5-11-15-7: 88/100.

With Kathy, Miranda and people from Kathy’s unit at the unit picnic in Washington Park in Burlingame. Ripe, rich, chocolatey, tobacco, chewy wine. Extremely forward fruit. As good as before. 5-11-17-7: 90/100.

At home at dinner, roast tenderloin of beef and scalloped potatoes with sweet marjoram and Parmesan. Big, dark ruby – purpleish wine. Viscous. Really impressive appearance. Very deep, well – focused Cabernet aroma. “The smell of the grape.“ Really impressive young wine nose. Beautiful forward fruit. On the palate it’s almost as good. Ripe, deep and good. Excellent. This has been consistently good– for the price, it’s a steal, absolutely. 5–12-16–8: 91/100.

Nice color, ripe palate, somewhat tannic and showing a hint of soap. I wonder how much this cost when it was released…
