2013 Barboursville Octagon

Octagon has been a very good wine for us and we don't mind the $60 price tag understanding that it's a good bet for a good time. That changed with this bottle.

Whether corked or poorly mixed, there is only one way to describe the first two sips..

BAD

We dumped the bottle. Not a good showing for Barboursville. Talking with friends and family, they had a similar experience with the 2013 release. I'd avoid this vintage.
