Last Tasted 2/93As with the 1985, my notes reveal a progressive decline in this wine's score. It still possesses a dark ruby color, but there has been no bouquet development and the citric, tartaric-dominated flavors are far too acidic, exhibiting only sterility and a one-dimensional character. This is not a wine, but a museum piece built to meet specific laboratory requirements. Yes, it will age, but there is no value in a charmless, joyless wine.

Mature, supple and balanced, though on the downside, with drying currant, fresh earth, herb and cedar notes. It also avoids being overly dry and tannic, as was the case with so many 1984s.--California Cabernet '74/'84/'94 retrospective. Drink now. 9,000 cases made. -JL
