1983 drinking like a champ! Super tight at the table so we took it home and came back to it he next day. Warmed timber, dried oak leaves, craisin and tea on the nose. Drinking with brilliant tannin and sharp acidity. Bordeaux-esque in all of the right places. High five.

Probably primarily CS with other Bordeaux varieties sprinkled on top to spice it up.
Bricked purple with brownish tint. Compact rim. Opaque.
Fresh unmistakable Cabernet perfume. Blackcurrant, blackberry, and some gamey and leathery notes to add to the complexity.
Completely resolved tannin, med plus acidity, med body. Blackberry, dried fig, floral with some refreshing herbaceous undertone.
Superb old school Napa Cab that's just about to begin the last leg of its prime journey. 90.
