Such a testament to the vineyard source and winemaking for this still to be going strong after 37 years. Fun way to ring in the New Year.

Feb 22nd, 2014Magnum. 1981, bottled 1985. Fully resolved tannins. Pyrazines that are balanced, leather and some dark fruit. Superb and in its prime. Contender for old-school cali cab of the year?
