If it's possible to make wine from mint leaves this is what it would taste like. Rusted brick in color, the '03 is showing its age. Spearmint meet peppermint, now you two add a dash of blueberry syrup and saddle leather.

If this 20 year old Napa Merlot were a human, it wouldn't be old enough to drink. Luckily this is indeed a 20 year old Napa Merlot, which makes it the perfect age to drink.
