Saturday, August 8, 2020 - Too tight, young, and wound up to evaluate right now. Will revisit this bottle in a couple of days.
Totally different wine on day 4. I don't normally keep wine this long, or expect much from it if I do, but it is possible that the screwcap + refrigeration gave this a more gradual aging profile. So, on night four, with a porterhouse and salad, this showed plenty of black olive and blackberry with good acidity. Not profound, but quite pleasant. I'd suggest letting these rest a couple of years or giving it a very long decant at this time. If this showing is consistent this represents a tremendous value.

[BTW, *should* you be interested, I just uploaded specific info for this vintage, including acclaim, which can be accessed via the CellarTracker Article link (lower lft)]
