Layered and complex. Multiple fruits of black cherry, cassis and blackberries. The finish had some vegetal and mineral notes - very good bottle.

2009. I was a little confused on this one, and not so not surprised when I saw a 9.0 average rating on Delectable. 14.2 ABV, decanted 2 hrs - smooth as silk and pleasant, but just not a Big Cab, and not muh complexity going on. Again, a pleasant enough pour, just doesn't blow your socks off, or even change a lot the longer it is open. Cherry, strawberry, pepper, slightest hint of dirt, iron and leather (but not enough). 9.0 also.

Yum, classic Napa cab flavors, blank currant, tobacco, and nice tannin structure. Will only get better in the next few years.
