  • bestdamncab Likes this wine: 90 points

    May 16, 2015 - Bordeaux Confidential USA, nose of Sumatra Coffee, allspice, dark fruit, more of the same on the palate, tasty, medium body, best in a year or two, long, long finish suggests potential improvement. 82% Cabernet Sauvignon and 18% Merlot.

We either open, breathe...sounds like more than several hours...and finish or use Coravin, which is magic. Having said that, we could give it a go...thanks.
