March 14, 2024 - 20% Cab Franc this vintage, some Petit Verdot, Malbec. Medium plus nose shows pretty style, freshness but hint of tertiary notes coming in, dusty black fruits, sage, dark florals, coffee bean. Palate is somehow even more expressive, complex but smooth, intricate subtleties weave a tapestry of flavor. Finish holds at medium plus. Great stuff.

May 30, 2022 - 5 hour decant. Don’t know why Rudd doesn’t get more love; all vintages of the estate are spectacular with a little age. I usually wait until the 10 year mark to open these up but took a flyer on this and glad I did. Still plenty of fruit left but coming into its own. Bottle disappeared in no time. Will just get better with time.

April 12, 2022 - Drank for our 14th anniversary, amazingly good, I love the 14 more than most vintages of this wine, if not the most given the softness and quality of redder fruit. Just so good. 3 hour decant.
