One of the wines of the night for me. Showed elegant, lifted and deep red fruit with no real pyrazine character and a long finish.

I won six bottles of Napa cab from my birth year at an auction. This was the first one I opened. Amazing how well this wine has held up over the years in unknown conditions. I was told that the previous owner was a collector. The cork was shot. I pushed it into the bottle. I then decanted through a strainer. I gotta say, right out of the bottle it was terrible. Obviously with a few hours of decanting, it improved. The nose was full of berries and smoke. The color was ruby. The taste was fantastic. Still lots of berry fruit, forest floor, leather. The finish was very long and overwhelming. My hat is off to the early farmers in Napa who pioneered this industry.
