Good Alexander Valley Cab. Typical lighter body, still lots of good fruit, earthy cedar and tobacco, smooth finish. This is at its peak now, however, since this is a 9 liter bottle, a 750 ml. of this may be past its prime. I think Dave Ready Jr. should be proud.

Loads of black fruits, tannins, some pithyness. Chalky spices. Could use more fruit & less oak. Some earthy truffle notes. Good qpr. Big!
