Ya it was good. Wasn’t expecting much. Maybe the dinged up bottle label thru off my positive psyche. After drinking this old cab I’ve concluded old cab is a touch more appreciable to my pallet versus old Merlot. Notes of plums, soft leather, and a touch of black licorice.

Just opened it. Still slightly chilled. Took one sip. It needs to be open longer and closer to room temp to appropriately judge but…taste like grape jelly mixed with an old worn saddle(leathery). Feeling good about the expected taste in an hour.

2013 Rutherford Hill Petit Verdot

It has the earthy taste of Rutherford Hill plus all the characteristics of a petite Verdot. It was good but that’s about it.
