  Another wonderful example of aged Napa Cab. My last of three bottles. This is in a fantastic place, drinking softly and delicious. Could potentially age longer as there is still fruit, but the tannins are fully resolved. A wonderful Christmas wine

  Considering the age, this wine was very drinkable. Deep color, nose was not very prominent but still full bodied and good balance.

  Crimson cranberry with an orange tint that only seems to come with age. This is a beautiful wine, I wish I was a poet so that I could describe the colors that seem to dance in the glass. Pristine looking bottle, fill and cork. I was expecting mustiness upon opening, but just fresh grape juice.
  I usually open Bordeauxs so this was a treat for me. Acidity and tannins are still very present. The fruit is plumb and dark cherries with a smooth tartness as an aftertaste. This is really good! This wine will still age.
