Consistant with my previous tasting...these are long of tooth vintages for the Sta Barbara/Sta Ynez AVA but it's so nice to enjoy a mature wine. This one had interesting green olive notes to go along with leather and cedar. The L&L Cabs are my elder statesmen.

Classic L&L Cab blend and one from deep in my cellar. Did not disappoint...super mellow from the years...very soft and silky with dubdued Cab notes. We had this with a 2013 Chappelet cuvee and the L&L wins due to its true Bordeaux blend approach.
