This was the WOTN - love the RUDD / but as a friend of mine @Bill Bender said they need time - I totally agree / the 03 is singing

An awesome wine / great color - so much structure and complexities and the taste is full bodied with all the blue fruits - tannins soften after a two decent - finish stays on the palette forever and ever and ever

So glad I have a few more and they can drink now but I think maintain another 5-7 years - well made as usual for Rudd

All smiles tonight

Rich and full bodied. Smooth and well balanced. Great !! Still tons of life left. Excellent freshness for a 20 yr old Cali cab
