Popped and poured. Nose of raspberries that lasted until the bottle was finished. Medium bodied, resolved tannins, up front fruit and a finish showing some age. Threw no sediment.

One of the best bottles of Napa Cab we've had in years. I've generally not liked many Napa Cabs over the last 10-15 years. They had some strange aquarium smell and lighter in body.

This probably has a few years left but there's no reason to wait.

Bob,

Rummaging in the cellar today I discovered two bottles of this wine. I'll be popping the cork on one in the near future after seeing your note.
