Flight #3 of our 1997 Retrospective. Presented single-blind; no formal notes. Wine #1 was vinous but very much alive and actually, quite enjoyable!

Drink now through 2027. — 3 months ago

Happy 25th anniversary to my lovely wife. Aging well for a 25 year old cab, everything you’d expect from Napa. — a month ago

Guess there’s some bottle variation. Much closer to bottles I’ve had in the past than the one the other night. — 17 days ago
