flawed

Sunday, April 24, 2022 - Very dark, sherried appearance. Badly oxidized. Have another bottle, so afraid of more money poured down the drain. Oddly, cork was pristine whereas many of my other aged Rhys chards have bubbled capsules and leaking corks. The few I've tried in that condition have not been sherried, but maybe didn't wow as much as expected. I bought these after being burned by prematurely oxidized white burgundies thinking they would give a similar profile and aging potential without that risk. Guess I was wrong. Time to drink up the Rhys chard to cull the cellar of what's gone bad and enjoy what's good while it lasts. It's not a storage condition issue because the bubbled capsules/leaking corks are unique to the Rhys chards and a couple Rhys pinots.
