Light color and body but still hobbling down the alley. After an hour little deterioration. Interesting

Beautiful older wine; soft and sweet on entry with silky and delicate mouthfeel, surprisingly long finish. Notes of bourbon and sassafras. Loved it.

Strangest Cab I have ever seen. 1972 vintage and while it tasted and smelled like fairly maderized Cab, it had the color of Provençal rose. Certainly a curious one.

Holy shit, just holy shit. JaRue hooked it up. Still a very lively wine, surprising amount of fruit, hints of veg, still had nice structure.

Missed by 10 years. Crazy how much fruit was remaining on this dinosaur.

When California wine was getting fine: Louis M Martini Cabernet Special Selection 1966 shared by a gentleman who purchased it 50 years ago for just $2.50 a bottle. Started a bit musty but that blew off in a few minutes. Medium-bottled, with sweet black fruit, tobacco, and a gorgeous, intriguing nose of mint. Silky tannins on the long finish. A half-century California Cab that still has it. History and hedonism from the same bottle.
