Hedges Family Estate Red 2011, Red Mountain, Yakima Valley
Washington, Usa$40.00
(5)
2017-2021/22 (1 per yr)
Sept 27, 2018...pre-dinner (Gerrtis, Steimlillers, Saconnes)....2 hour decant, really lovely, lots of fruit, smooth & delicious.
April 2019 - Florida at Ann & Georges
Dec 21.....for sure none left. I think I may have drank 2 myself and given one away (to a wine lover I hope). My recollection...was always a good wine but better younger, had more vitality.

???....don't remember having, but reviews suggest it may have been even better than 2013 (which I loved)....I must have enjoyed it having purchased another vintage....good decision....a definite consideration if future releases!

February 29, 2020....hostess gift to A&G, they held a dinner for the golf foursome.
July 2020...forget what the meal was but really liked the wine, a nice blend of wines I enjoy. Was quite refined for Chile.

2017/18-2022/3
Mar 2024....with Nora while enjoying Norah's homemade moussaka. The match was excellent, as was the wine and the food. Eveything was perfect. Needs at least a half hour to breathe, longer better. Have last one in the next 12 months.
