Wow, this was just singing. Velvety texture, fully resolved tannins, vibrant and tart black fruit and black liquorice, excellent acidity, not a hint of this getting tired, and none of the sweetness to the fruit that I find on older vintages of lesser Cali Cabs.

Cow manure and weeds. Soap in a Frenchman's armpit.

Yet not that old, a very tired bottle....Moving towards Madeira and Port notes however not oxidized. Not much pleasure and very simple.

From magnum. Great balance. Tart red fruit, sweet licorice, hints of dried tobacco, excellent acidity, good weight. A winner.

From magnum. Fresh and vibrant fruit, excellent acidity and tart tannins. Lovely balance. Still has years ahead of it.
