March 28, 2024 - This bottle was ruined by my early experiments with the Coravin. If anyone thinks they can get away with piercing a sterile bottle of wine, sampling some, and then putting it back in the rack for a few years - think again. On pulling the bottle, the growth floating on top made it immediately apparent that the Coravin introduced some eager beaver bacteria, when I tasted it years ago. SAD, especially as the colour of the wine srtill showed young, indicating that this would have been a lovely drink even now in 2024. The 1990 that we tried next next had fortunately escaped my Coravin experiments, and drank beautifully.
