My red WOTN by a nose over the '77 Heitz MV. Came out tannic but clearly aged with slight bricking in the glass. Most of the same notes as the '77 but more fruit, deeper, a little mocha. This has another 10 years but is peaking right now. Thank you @Steve Anderson

This is outstanding, classic Martha’s Vineyard eucalyptus/mint aromas, great fruit, super complex and very long finish!!

Jonathan’s 40th birthday wine, also 40 years old. Martha’s Vineyard 1984. Another old classic California Cabernet that won’t quit. Good cork, savory and aromatic, a fine old wine indeed!

Beautiful rich complex and ready to drink, not much of the minty character usually mentioned with Martha’s

Outstanding Napa Cabernet from an icon Winery. Medium body with gobs of fruit and resolved tannins. Lovely aroma and Cabernet flavors. Still has much life. Super tasty..🍷🍷🍷

Nose was funky and musty out of the gate - 15 min later it emerged to be beautiful. Rich, showing some age, well structured, great oak and vanilla notes. Definitely at a high.
