Beautiful Old Cab nose of Tobacco and some cedar/cigar box. On the palate, seems a bit tired and balance leaning toward acidity, but still a nice drink. Blend of Alexander/Knights Valley fruit, with some Cab Franc and Merlot in the mix. This was the regular cuvée, so would like to try the “Speciale” from this vintage.
