  Ok but a bit beyond peak. Decant for at least an hour first.

  Wow, Great bottle of 2000 napa cab. 15% alcohol is a hint that this was extracted from ripe fruit. Great earthy nose with just an occasional hint of mushroom or truffle amid cooked fruit. Excellent fruit still on the front an mid palette. Soft tannins still present. this would have lasted a bit longer. But a great wine for an evening of relaxation on the porch watching the sunset. Still have a bit of a buzz. wish it wasn't my last bottle. Overall great bottle of wine. I think 2000 has gotten a bad rap if you have been able to let it lay down until now. It is showing it chops.

  WoW what a nice bottle, wish I had more. Opened and ran it through a filter into a decanter for about an hour. dark in the decanter with a very nice rich floral nose. In the glass the nose was very fragrant, with dark fruit jumping, and a nice floral component. On the palate the tannins were still kicking, but not overpowering. What a nice bottle, went well with Rib-Eyes.

  I was afraid I had waited to long to drink this; now I'm glad I have another left. This was superb! And excellent nose, dark purple color and rich taste with tannins remaining on the finish. I've overwritten the drink-by date for the other bottle to 2014.

  One of the best wines I've ever tasted. Brilliant fruit, with elegant structure and
  silky, velvety mouth feel.
