Big jammy yet inoffensive Napa cab with a lot of bottle age. Bit lacking in terms of precision and acid. But good with steak au poivre.

Tonight's selection with Prime Rib a 2000 Mag of Rudd Estate Proprtry. Red. Initial impression Bordeaux with black red fruit with Tobacco & a hint of first floor / earthiness. On the palate you black fruit, cassis dark chocolate, cedar, earth, with a touch of vanilla, the finish lingers giving you a macerated plum, earth, red fruit with hints of cedar & mocha. David Ramey was the wine maker I believe
