Jordan Vineyard & Winery Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 1981

Bill Bender

I've had great luck drinking older bottles that showed well lately--including a fantastic Ridge from the same vintage....but sadly this was a disappointment. Fruit is almost completely gone and time did it no favors. Alas this is one nice benefit of Delectable.....we can be each other's Guinea pigs. The fill was high and the cork was dry but sound. I'd say this is just over the hill and I suggest you pass it off on an irritating in-law, a mortal enemy or an attorney

our wedding wine in 1986. Happily the relationship has lasted better than the wine. Structure and little fruit.
