Sorry to report this is well past its prime: prominent bricking on the edges, light weight, see thru, nose of dirt, leather, barnyard, bell pepper, forest floor, mushroom, and very herbaceous - only the slightest hint of cherry fruit. Tannins still hanging in there tho and it drank alright - just a really old Cab that was probably delicious for the first 5-6 years or so

Purple and black in the glass with a nose highlighted by notes of cranberry and must. Subtle attach leads to a smooth yet balanced midpalete featuring grape and cherry. Slightly tart finish. Easiest to drink cab I've had in a long time.
