  Drinking really well. Great fruit balanced with earth and tobacco flavors. Soft tannins. Bordeaux like. Will last several years but no need to wait.

  Same rating as 8 years ago. Then it was heavy tannins, now it's mellowed, perhaps on the downhill slide.

  Lovely Cab Nice dark color, full deep nose. A touch of dark fruit but balanced wonderfully with the right amount of acidity and tannins. I let it decant for a couple hours and it opened up nicely. If you have it, the time is right to enjoy it.

  Dark, opaque black cherry color to the rim, with a nose of exquisite Bordeaux attributes of cigar box, graphite, dried tobacco, and dense blue fruit. The mouthfeel is heavy on the tongue with a concentrated and flavor-laden delivery, accompanied by a very strong present tannin structure that exemplifies a seemingly young 12 year old wine.
  The fruit on the palate is concentrated and brilliant, and the finish reveals sweet blue/black fruit that continues the flavors of this voluptuous wine.

  Interesting comments, which I agree with, from PDBender. My cork also disintegrated despite great care in its removal. We got half of it and inserted a aerator for the rest. The rest was sublime. Deep garnet and no brown, cassis and plummy fruit - kind of a blast from the past for what CA puts out nowadays.
  Thoroughly enjoyable and looking forward to the last two in the cellar.
