Henry Mckenna 10 Year Old Bourbon

Gaderian Wines

Henry Ranch Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2023

It is time for my #FridayCabernetfix.

Dark ruby in color with a wide reddish rim.

Beautiful nose of blackberries, blueberries, black plums, black cherries, cedar, light vanilla, licorice, chocolates, earth, light coffee, tobacco, light toast, mediterranean spices, black pepper and herbs.

Full bodied and elegant with medium acidity and long legs.

Dry on the palate with blackberries, black currants, cooked cherries, cedar, toast, light vanilla, spices, dark chocolates, licorice, coffee, peppercorn, earth, herbs and eucalyptus.

Long finish with fine grained tannins and tangy cherries.

This 3 year old Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa Valley is already drinking gorgeously. Nicely balanced, fruit forward and very complex.

I had the 2019 vintage a few years ago and it is very consistent.

This Single Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon will continue to age nicely in the next 10 to 15 years. Has good potential to become a 95 point wine.

Spicy and entertaining with a soft mouthfeel. The alcohol is well integrated already.

I gave it 2 hours in the decanter to open up.

A great sipping wine that will pair nicely with a big piece of steak too.

100% Cabernet Sauvignon grapes were aged in French and American Oak barrels for 22 months. A tiny production of less than 1,200 bottles.

14.8% alcohol by volume.

93 points.

$75.

Calumet Farm 10 Year Old kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey

Solid enough, but disappointing for the price/reputation. Nose of acetone, caramel, vanilla and orange zest. The taste is more of the same, with an added metallic bitterness on the end that is pretty unpleasant. It’s remarkably rough for a 10 year old whiskey. I dunno. It’s interesting but I expected more. — 3 years ago

Solid product, but lacks depth. Heat is pleasant but not overpowering. The vanillin on the other hand is overpowering. — 7 years ago

Pappy Van Winkle Malt Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey 10 Year 107 Proof 2024

Brandon's bottle was better than mine. A little heat, a little sweet. Honey, cornbread, cinnamon, tobacco. Tight, clean finish.

Uh Dave, I don’t know this Brandon guy but I’m calling someone on the table. We review the Gold versus Van Winkle and rate Gold a bit below. Ok. Fair. But what’s with the Grand Pappy in the background and the invite in my mailbox missing?! Something is way off ;) looks like a great night. At some point I do want to try bourbons with you!

Yeah! 'Twas a good evening. I didn't get around to reviewing a few bottles, including the Pappy. You'd be upset if I did (it was disappointing) 😬 We did pour some Rock Hill Farms which was outstanding.
