  Boy, I miss the old days! 12.5%, this is dark fruited, lively, delicious. Drunk alongside a 1996 Ravenswood Old Hill. This had dark, cool toned Cabernet fruiti, between red cherry and black cherry, there was plenty of ripe and aged tobacco traits and some secondary forest floor things going on as well. This had some dark loam/earthy soil complexities. It drank so well… I miss the days when California top dogs were not over made! Love it.

  Still drinking well. Lots of strawberry/cherry fruit. Silky palette and good fine grained tannin

  These bottles are slowly fading away. California-esque notes of black cherry, tobacco and cedar remnants with some tannins still evident, but the tannins will eventually win the race. Drink 'em if you have them.

  NY/NJ Offline at Tribeca Grill (Tribeca Grill NYC): Classic Cabernet nose with notes of cassis pyrazine and moderate oak. Smooth and elegant mouthfeel. Medium body, tannin, and acid with a medium to medium long finish. Mature and drinking well.
