Still drinking beautifully, shows what a well made Cali Cab can be after some proper aging. Silky, rich dark fruit with mineral and earth. Long finish.

It was a really good example to show that even concentrated style of Napa Cab can age. I still remember the ten-year old 2010. They have juicer side of wine can solid core with long finish. However, after 20 years, it can evolve to a more old world style beauty. The nose showed blue fruits, metal edge, and a hint of creaminess. On the palate, it was so well-balanced. Slightly tartness and mature tannin held the long long finish. It was surprising that the jucier style was transformed into a mature Bordeaux. This definitely is a Second Growth tier.
