Shared with friends for Open that Bottle Night. Delicious and showing almost no signs of age. Fully integrated, silky tannins combined with clove, pepper and baking spices make for an elegant counterpoint to the big Bordeaux and California Cabernets served. A wonderful reminder of our 2009 visit to Rubissow on Mt. Veeder.

Oh my. What a treat. 18 years old and drinking so well right now. 65% Cabernet Franc, 35% Merlot. Tannins are fully integrated and this wine is now elegant and silky. Spice and flowers with hints of tobacco, and earthy, forest characteristics. Drank over two nights and equally good both nights. Delicious.
