Tasted blind. Ruby color. Almost opaque. Young fruit forward nose. Notes of plums, mocha, dark chocolate, coffee, cinnamon and some exotic thing like eucalyptus. So rich and vibrant in the mouth. A forever finish. This wine took us in all directions. Immortal. Stan's 60th will always be remembered for the 45 Latour vs 45 Mouton mano y mano battle. A wine life moment for sure. — 9 years ago

Beautiful. A little barnyard, some musty dark fruits, but beautifully integrated, with plenty of acidity. Has a ton of life ahead. — 10 years ago

Started out with big fruit but calmed down some with lamb kebabs. Last glass had mellowed nicely to end as a lovely sip by itself. — 11 years ago

A surprising number of bubbles for the age yet the age showing itself and not a lot of life left. There was concern about storage based on the shape of the bottle. — 9 years ago

As soon as I write a blog post about why I'm not the biggest fan of Napa Cab I start finding a few I love. Coincidence? I think not. — 11 years ago
