Understated but beautiful minerality. A bit of kerosene and cedar. Yet, fresh with citrus notes and ends on a fleeting moment of smokiness. — 9 years ago

Trefethen 1993 Cabernet Sauvignon, Oak Knoll District, Napa Valley | A pulchritudinous Napa Cabernet Sauvignon from a legendary house which at 22 years on is gloriously balanced and still full of ripe fruit but at an en pointe equipose in a Bordelaise expression a la Saint-Estèphe. Plenty of red currants, lingonberries, dried cranberries, black currants and blackberries but at this age these are underscored with a vetiver aroma, a pheromonal appeal, and a welcomed edge of currant leaf, cedar, allspice and a penetrating life start to finish. — 11 years ago

Decanted for about an hour, and it just flowered, still drinking beautifully, eucalyptus, mint, cedar, spice, this is a big wine, some plum and cherries on the nose, finished with a dark chocolate, the mouth feel was silky. Fabulous! — 9 years ago
