Pnp due to age. More sediment then I expected. Love the same wine with younger years and was hoping for the same soft tannins. More acidity than expected, drinking like a young Brunello. Would not repeat.

Doing pretty well though probably at and on downslope from peak. This showed a more oaked, primary expression than a lot classic Cabs from that era. The oak was clearly evident and a large partof the expression of the wine. That's not nearly the terrible thing many would lead us to believe it is these days. But it's also disappointing when the wine doesn't match it's volume or merely use that oak as seasoning. This is in that category. A nice experience but more nouveaux than classic.

오랜시간이 지났지만 너무나도 풍부한 과실에 힘도 좋다.
타닌은 이미 없는것처럼 부드러워졌고, 적당한 산미에 좋은 밸런스
아주 매력적!

This was a lost bottle in my cellar that turned up. Cork was fine and no leakage. Nose like fingernail polish -actetone.
