2013 Terlato Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon Rutherford - USA, California, Napa Valley, Rutherford (5/31/2018)
Day 1: Oak, menthol, Bing cherries, dust and dark chocolate. Full bodied effort that should mellow over time. I like it on day 1 and see where it will go from here. Long finish. 91 points
Day 2: Not getting the oak from day 1 with some nice Bing cherries, plums and strawberries emerging. Menthol and black licorice are present on the palate. Medium to long finish. I like the wine and a bit more interesting on day 2. Not sure this wine as this point will be much more than the 90-92 range. Will revisit day 3. 91 points
Day 3: A little better. Nicely integrated with a solid fruit profile. The oak has subsided. Spices on the medium to long finish. Well made. 92 points
Recommendation: I would hold this 3 to 5 years for full enjoyment. Bought 3 so wanted to get a 3 day wine review in. (92 pts.)
