Hillside Select Stags Leap District Cabernet Sauvignon

Dark, rich and ripe

750ml. Nice. Plenty of time left. Unfortunately my last one

Pure currant fruit, nimble with good concentration, still on the young side, aging very gracefully.

Cork was very soft, but wine decanted beautifully. Great, fruity taste!

Very fresh for 21 years old

Amazing nose and smooth finish. Definitely needs to decant for a few hours

Still drinking beautifully

1996. Nothing not to love.

New Years Eve.

Sadly, this bottle was corked. There are hints of good stuff underneath, but it is overwhelmed by a moldy, mildew note.
