Napa Valley, California, USA
This is a Hendry Block 8 Cabernet Sauvignon vintage 2002. This was part of a warehouse sale Hendry had when they discovered a lot of wine that had been stored off site. Wine club members could get a case of wine (winery choice) for around $20.00 per bottle. What a deal...we got some gems. Was a little worried as the top half of the cork had started to disintegrate and I feared the worst. The bottom half of the cork was intact and almost immediately lovely fruit aromas filled the room. Big sigh of relief and joy! Amazing how well this wine held up! Lovely fruit aromas with velvety tannins with a nice lingering finish.
