Are kidding me? Context? Good Wine is good wine, and this isn't! Drank this tonight after 1998 Chateau Montrose and absolutely no comparison. Well, there shouldn't be, because this is swill. Unless you like overexracted prunes, vanilla and rubbing alcohol. Disjointed and almost unpalatable. For close to thirty bucks, I'm glad I have no more. AWFUL...

Very nice right now. Can't see any decline. Still plenty of fruit. Nice balance. Would drink last bottle within two years.
