Purple in color, ruby at the rim, mostly opaque and bright.  The nose has cassis, black cherries, dust, slight leather and spice.  Medium bodied.  Good acidity.  Medium tannins.  On the palate, black cherries with some cassis and slight tar.  Moderate finish.  This is drinking well now on its own but probably a bit better with food.  This should go nicely with Lamb Stew.  drink over the next ten years.

One of my favorite Napa Cabs, it was nice to try a Materium with some age on it from a very good if not great vintage.  Inky purple in color with a thin ruby rim, opaque and bright.  The nose is great with cassis, cedar, graphite and char.  Great texture.  Medium to firm tannins.  On the palate, this is not quite at peak but getting there.  Layers of cassis with some minerality and char.  Long finish.  Delicious.  This is great on its own and will work well with heavy meaty dishes such as Prime Rib.  Drink over the next ten to fifteen years.

A+
Current Price:

Inky purple in color, opaque and bright.  The nose is great with cassis, blueberries, cedar, slight graphite and spice.  Full bodied.  Firm tannins.  On the palate, this is delicious if still youthful.  Flavors of cassis, blueberries, graphite and spice.  Complex but tight, it unwinds in the glass.  Long finish.  This drinks great on its own and would be nice with roasted meats, fowl or squash.  Drink over the next twenty years.
