Sweet fruit. A couple years past its prime, but still beautiful, and a testament to the best winemaking of 1980’s California.

Mesquite! The fruit is mostly gone, but plenty of old pyrazine notes and loads of acid. 11.5% abv. Love this terroir for Cab.

Lovely fresh blackberry and green undergrowth. Very round and polished. On the palate light and focused. A bit dilute. Pretty and refreshing

1986. Left-bank Bordeaux? Nope, just great Cali Cab. Pyrazine, earthy, this, too, has many years ahead.
