Clearly past its prime, but it hung in there. Brown, almost orange at the rim. Nose offered earth and a whiff of perfume, but the wine had lost much of its fruit and the finish was short. That said, the wine held its character for 90 minutes, and didn't lose any more of its stuffing during our meal. Nostalgia in a bottle, reminding us of what 1989 once was.
