Sunday, December 3, 2023 - On the table it was the WOTN by common consensus but i didnt enjoy it one bit. It had none of the style that i have come to associate with high quality BDX blend producers from California. 15.2% alcohol which was really unecessary as the raw materials seemed to have everything. Nothing was faulty but it completely lacked charm. It got better after 2 hours by a little bit but still no where close to the other vintage i have tasted in the past.
Surprisingly my cork was completely intact unlike the previous reviews reporting that it broke. The cork showed hardly any age.
