Coravin'd a healthy glass of this several weeks (months?) ago, and pulled the cork tonight. Right out of the bottle this show modestly aged tannins with little fruit, and frankly comes across a bit flat and one-dimensional.
After 90mins I'm calling this death via coravin (yet again!). Will cork and revisit tomorrow to see if I'm wrong, but Mrs Davidandrose is making filets au poivre which deserve something more enjoyable than what I'm getting out of this.

Spice kicked in on initial taste, but amazing once we let it breath!

Solid wine. Needs another 5 years to be really good. Serious cab. Not juicy red wine goo a lot of napa cabs have become.

Young Napa cab showing fruit and oak on the nose. Will benefit from aging and more decanting than I was able to offer
