This bottle was very enjoyable to slowly sip thru the entire evening, the secret seems to be to decant for 4 hours before drinking. Complex, resolved tannins, balanced acidity/minerality. Great nose, restrained but deep Napa cabernet flavors.

So dark and so little bricking, who would guess a 13 year old napa cab? It does have sweet blueberry and BlackBerry fruit, too much for an old world wine, though. This is it's own thing. 13.8 ABv which is high for her haha. Sweet fruit, tannins, some pyrazines. This is corison. This has a decade easy. Great drink.

Thought I was opening the 2007 Kronos but alas this was probably for the best. This has explosive perfume and deep savor with Corison's unstoppable energy. A great wine with years to go. No prune juice here.

A perfect expression of Cabernet. Dark fruit, bright acidity, long finish. Tannins are soft and this is drinking beautifully now. I wasn't planning to open this, but I was anxious to drink a California Cab after the wonderful tasting the other night, and this one was handy.

Very accessible, light tannins. Great fruit, mostly red but a layer of dark forest, tar adds complexity. Good acid, nice even with a mediocre steak.
