  From magnum. A bit over the hill but still lots of nice components.

  Amber color in the glass. Definitely past its prime, but still drinkable. If you had this blind, you might have gone towards an oxidative Rioja or Musar, but never a Chardonnay. No acid, no primary fruit. Luckily the alcohol isn't too high, so it's not hot or viscous to drink.
