Almost 25-years old and drinking great! Drips with red currant and eucalyptus. Well balanced with softly dissolved tannins.

76% Cabernet Sauvignon, 17% Cabernet Franc, 3% Zinfandel, and 4% other red varietals. This is one of Dave’s best Cabernets (IMHO), lovely fruit, probably better 5 or so years ago, but still quite good!!

This is definitely mature, more evolved than the 1996 Cab, great bargain “in the day” ($95/case on futures), but the time to drink up has come, solid!
