Capitol Region Wine Collectors Club (WCC), CA Cabernet Pre-2000; 20 April 2023 at Fort Orange Club, Albany, NY
A second bottle from BF's cellar, showing without flaws in comparison to last month's offering is a real treat to start our night of CA wines in its shadow.

Still alive and well. And delicious. The last of the Katie birth year wine.

Dec 26th, 2014Earthy, peppery, but still very integrated. Fruit in a soft, slightly desiccated state after 1 hour. Still has some life.

Drinking well. A lot of deep, brooding aromas. This wine is grounded and has more development to come, but not too much.
