  November 25, 2023 - wow, this was still alive and kicking from 1.5L. Drank over 4 hours and improved. No sediment. Drink up.

  February 3, 2021 - It's the pleasant surprises that have the greatest impact. At 28 years, and especially after the cork disintegrated upon opening, I was more than a little surprised by how very good this was. Deep purple, not much color change. Some grassy elements on the nose but not unpleasant. What made this so good were the rich co-mingling flavors of dark fruit and mocha perfectly balanced and integrated with the scant remaining tannins. And it has a long finish. I can't imagine this staying this good for much longer, so I would drink what you have. Bravo! to those makers who fashioned this beauty.

  January 4, 2020 - Dark colour. Some bricking. Dumb at first, once it opened up (1+ hours) it displayed cassis, dark fruit, minerality. Good lift. Long finish. Suspect it's on a down-slide so drink up! Still, impressive for a 27 year old wine
