October 29, 2017 - Lost track of this one bottle. Purchased it often back in the day. I decided to open it tonight by myself since I didn’t have high hopes for it after 25 years. It’s actually held on quite well with some fruit left and a hint of leather. It was a bit dusty on the nose when first opened, but it blew off after a short time in the glass. Tremendous balance, even though it is over the hill now. I don’t regret letting hang out this long, I’m thoroughly enjoying the experience.

Am saving a Jeroboam of 01 for my 50th in a couple of years.
