There's too much to say about this wine but I'll start with noting that it's not only California's Greatest and most Historic Cabernet, but one of the finest and most collected in the world. It's also a wine that's immune to misguided trends and fads, with it stylistically remaining consistent over the last four decades. This is a iconic wine and vital to any serious collector. This elegant, legendary vintage shows intense fruit, limestone earth, and firm acid. It will be enjoyable over the next 15 to 30 years.

Life is good. Put your feet up and give yourself a high-five!
