Fortunate Son
Naughty Wicked Witch of the West Vineyard Red Blend
Napa Valley, California, USA
Another 4th Friday for the books. What a much needed time out of the house and to be with friends after this past week.
I believe this is a Jayson Woodbridge wine...not sure if it falls under Hundred Acre or is separate, but this was quite nice, though doesn’t have the Hundred Acre velvet/plush palate. Very concentrated. Not quite extracted, but the fruit was still quite dominant at 9-yrs old. I expected some blue fruit out of this as Hundred Acre normally has, but it was all blackberry, licorice, vanilla tobacco, tar and bing cherry cola. Wasn’t overly complex in the line up it was paired with tonight, but a very generous donation none the less.

This wine has changed for the better in the last two years. If you haven’t opened a bottle of the 07 in a while... open it!

This wine is definitely at its peak. Just not worth it. Lots of other wines better all the way around for 1/2 the cost.
