DOA, Sadly. Performed well in my short rib braise though. And curiously, tasted better on day 2.

Waited too long to drink this one. It was over-matured. Only slightly, yet you could detect a hint of raisin and it's clear this wine had better days. Unfortunate.

One of my favorite Cabs from this vintage in this price range. Great fruit, smooth tannins and a long finish. Still drinking well. Sad that this is my last bottle.

A solid to good "middle reliever" for a non-contending (or over contending baseball team). That is, a bit aged but still effective - and better as a second after a true "starter" (90 plus rating) with dinner. Also more than adequate as a solo bottle on a weeknight. Certainly decent for a Cab in the $20-25 range.
