Much like the Hobbs., this one was one a gentle decline. Fun to drink at this point in its life to see the evolution of the wine in bottle.

99' Groth Reserve Cabernet. After the success of last nights 32-year-old Napa cab, I thought I'd pop a few older cabs tonight.
We threw it in the decanter & poured it straight into the glass. The tannins are very subtle. The acidity is very light. Muted fruits of black cherry, plum skins. At this point it's all middle/ back palate. Nice bottle. Drink them up.

This was my third favorite (of 10 wines) in our blind tasting. I mistook it for an '05 Bordeaux, which is a real compliment and testiment to the ability of Cali Cabs to hold up 21 years later...
