Cork giving out but why not after 19 years! Wine is escaping to fresh beauty with a little wet dog age that I like.

14.7% is reigning it in on this varietal and well done! Doesn’t feel fire breathing at all 👏 — 2 days ago

It is time for my #FridayCabernetfix.
Dark ruby in color with a short reddish/brick rim.
Fruity nose with blackberries, black plums, dried figs, cedar, vanilla, licorice, tobacco, chocolates, spices, herbs, light eucalyptus, light earth, black tea and black pepper.
Full-bodied, soft and elegant, with medium acidity and long legs.
Dry on the palate with blackberries, black currants, plums, cooked cherries, cedar, toast, light vanilla, licorice, light herbs, spices, light earth, chocolates, tobacco, peppercorn, coffee and cola.
Long finish with fine grained tannins and tangy cherries.
This is a gorgeous Cabernet Sauvignon based Bordeaux blend from Napa valley. Rich and extracted. Fruit forward and complex. Well balanced and elegant.
An iconic wine that still needs more time in the bottle to mature properly. Although it is 9 years old, it still feels very young. Will continue to age nicely in the next 25 years. This Single Vineyard is showing great potential.
Good right out of the bottle, and so much better after 3 hours of decanting.
Wine Advocate 98 points. Wine Spectator 96 points.
A great sipping wine that will also pair nicely with a big piece of steak.
14.8% alcohol by volume.
94 points.

Quite nice, but definitely best on day 3. At first quite reserved and doesn’t give much up. On day 2 and 3 more generous, and the delicious rounded acid quality really comes into focus. — 13 days ago
