I dont understand why people dis this wine. I think it was decent. Drank a magnum I had stashed. The tannins were definitely gone, some dark fruit still remains.

Auction bottle from well stored cellar. 1 hr decant. Classic Napa cab flavors of dark fruits, plum, cassis, and moderate oak. Tannins are present but fine and chalky. Finishes clean with just enough acid. A well made bottle of wine drinking well now. I'm not sure why other reviewers thought so poorly of this wine.

Absolutely awful. Devoid of fruit, but lots of oak and tannin. Staglin should have been embarrassed to put a $50 pricetag on this wine. This is the 3rd bottle I've had. They all sucked.

Classic cab, but a bit tired with muted fruit. Some soft tannins and body. Needed quite a bit of air to lose harsh notes.

Absolutely terrible. Could not drink it. Amazingly bad for the Staglin family.
