  Nose of black berry, black cherry, red bell pepper, saddle leather, and dust, big body, mouth filling fruit, power and elegance in a glass, at peak, drink up soonest, brought back memories of Justin, the old Silver Oak Winery, and a lot of Release Days, and a long, flavorful finish and aftertaste, photo uploaded.

  Still showing well at 31 years, the fill level, label, foil and cork were near perfect. Of course storage in a six liter large format bottle ages better than a standard bottle. 6L Bottle number 44 of 60.
  Dark garnet colored, medium-full bodied, dense concentrated black berry and black currant fruits accented by graphite, cigar box, leather and notes of cassis and spicy oak on a long lingering finish.

  Here is Justin at his best. From magnum over 2 days. Nose of black berry, black cherry, red bell pepper, and dust, big body, mouth filling fruit, power and elegance in a glass, at peak, enjoy, look forward to the 3 liter, long, flavorful finish and aftertaste.

  Intimate Dinner Series: Cabernet Sauvignon (G&R's): Double blind. Garnet core with just a slight bit of bricking. Starts with a terrfic Togni-esque bell pepper quality, turing to dill, along with red fruit and the slightest hint of leather. Very nicely balanced, with red berry fruit, herbs and red plum with a lingering finish. Just a lovely wine. This didn't change very much, but remained elegant and pretty. 95+ pts.
