This was the top wine in the "Drink Now" list so I opened it when I got home after a wine dinner. While it didn't taste young, it was not over the top. A mature cab with an excellent taste! At the end of a good life, and it would have been better 5 years ago, it was still very good.

Opened at Anvil with Jeff and Kay. Still very dark with no visible signs of age. Black fruits on the nose and palate. Balance is nice with integrated tannins.

Opened by TLV who shared a glass with our table. Deep color with aromas of black fruit and plum with a dominant mint/eucalyptus overtone. Tannins are fine and have softened nicely. Flavors of plum, black currants and eucalyptus. Finishes nicely. 91-92 pts.

This 11 year old cab was a great accompaniment to slow roasted prime rib on Xmas day. Other than a bit of tannic bite the wine was drinking well.
