Fantastic drink! Still great fruit. The cork was in good shape, opened with oso. — 11 years ago

Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon 2001

Aside from the cork disintegrating, this wine was quite tasty. First sip was after 3 hours of decanting and there was still much more to open up, as there was a dominant layer of funk hovering over it. — 11 years ago

We found a liquor store out in Cypress (the same liquor store that provided alcohol for our wedding) and they have a large stash of Caymus leftover, surprisingly. We bought our fair share, for sure.

And now we're moving on to a 750ml '10 Caymus. Delightful.

Thanks. I got my hands on a couple of 66s the other day with levels around the top half of the embossed brand. Don't have much experience with ullage in this bottle shape so that's reassuring to hear!

I'd get to drinking your 97's now. Good...great actually but beginning to lose a lot. Cork was quite soft on mine. Flavor...like California...but smoother ;-) — 11 years ago

Les Picasses Chinon Cabernet Franc 1989

A little rough in the aromatics. Cork was suspect, looked and smelled a bit funky. wine was otherwise youthful in the mouth with raspberry, tar, spice and plenty of lively acid. Have a few more '89s and think its time. overall a beautiful wine still but perhaps in aromatic decline. - 1989 vintage — 11 years ago
