'97 Sebastiani Sonoma Cask Cab

[newsguy]

Drew:

FWIW, my notes from my first taste of this gem two months ago...

"deep blackish, purple. classic cab nose and taste, with VERY big fruit midpalate. a thick, almost juicy wine, with layered tastes and a nice finish. there are plenty of tannins here, but i found them to be very soft and they didn't seem to cut off the tastebuds much at all. WS made it a spectator selection and gave it a 90. i'd say more like a 91, especially when considering P/Q."

...i've since bought a case of this wine and am even thinking about buying another. this stuff is drinking great now and will only improve for 5 or more years, i'd guess.
