Old school!! Lean, lower alcohol, nice structure. Loved the bright fruit profile.

Black cherry, tobacco lead, cigar box. Subdued but with really nice structure.

Was in awesome shape. No age, lovely dark fruit, some cedar and even a bit of green? Just lovely.

Was in great shape. Opened up over an hour or so, still some fruit, plenty of acidity and no age showing.

Great old school cab. Fairly light on tannins and so easy drinking. Very enjoyable.

A bit too austere and closed on night one but night two was lovely. Strong acids, with soft touch of red fruits and herbs. Very lovely red but not if you prefer big reds.

Light bodied. Better after an hour and even better the second day. This was a nice choice available from the folks at Passionfish in Pacific Grove. Their wine list is truly one of the best at almost retail prices.
