Found this buried in the wine cabinet and was concerned it was past its prime. Not to worry it was fantastic! Good dark fruit, soft tannins and medium acid all blended together for a great glass. Drink now.

Pretty disappointed honestly. Cardinale are some of my favorite Cabs but this was out of balance with significant heat on the finish. Worst vintage of Cardinale I've had. Recent stuff is much better

Nice wine but a touch of heat on the finish and just didn't quite live up to expectations.
