  Outstanding! Seemingly I bought this in another life! Decanted. Opened up wonderfully over breathing for a couple of hours. Soo sorry that this is my last bottle of this. There can't be many of these around. Showing off a great Cab by Cakebread!!

  PNP from a Magnum signed by Dennis Cakebread. Still a solid pour with classic Napa punch !!! Still lots of fruit, at first taste it did not taste of any age. First taste seemed thin, but over the past two hours has evolved in full form.

  Cork removed - perfect shape give the bottle's age. Did a preliminary our and taste - decided to decant and air for about 2 hours. Wine had aged wonderfully. I have one bottle left - looking for the special occasion...
  The wine looks crimson colored. The legs are slow. There is light sediment in the bottle. It smells like black currant (cassis). It tastes like black currant (cassis) and blueberry. The body is full. The wine has silky texture. The wine finishes medium. The wine has medium acidity.

  from magnum - and at its peak - WOW! Perfectly aged and awesome flavor. Very slightly cloudy, so smooth and a finish that goes on forever.

  Men's Best Bottle, BB: tasted blind vs 14 others.
  This is in a really good place.
  Still young in aroma, flavor and taste.
  Big but soft tannins, long finish.
