Purple with no brick on the edges yet. Cedar and menthol on the nose. Fully mature,but not old. Nice black fruit, balanced vanilla and very drinkable now. Won't get better but for a not so great year this held up well and outlived it's predicted durability . I was surprised ! Didn't expect this to be this good at this stage.

This was good napa-style cab, but a little muted in its flavors. Modern style. Nothing wrong here. 14.2% ABV. But not a wow wine.

Muted dusty cherry, fruit has faded but it’s still beautifully floral and alive. Love it. ‘98 a miss? Not in my experience

Decanted. Soft but intact cork. Dark cherry, chocolate, mature tannins, with hints of smoke and soy. Still drinking well.
