Such a contrast from the 82. Fresh and lively. Spicy savory flavors. Lots of bright acidity. Tasted maybe 9 years old, not 29. Remarkable wine. #smalicewedding

My bride's birth year. Ripe fruit flavor with nice earthy, rounded tannins. Classic aged Cabernet could've been old world as much #moonmountaindistrict

Bold mountain fruit, slightly underripe+a touch of brett+29 years=freshness+rusticness+and lively varietal cab. Fun interesting wine, especially when you get to sit next to the guy who made it.

Fantastic nose but fruit (and palate pleasure) probably left the premises 5+ years ago.

Haven't opened it yet. Would like to find the tasting notes or fact sheet for it.
