flawed

Saturday, July 15, 2023 - fill level still high in neck, cork still pristine. this particular bottle was well past its prime, beyond raisiny and into metallic territory. paint thinner on the nose. the tannic structure was surprisingly intact, but the fruit and acid were too dead immediately upon opening to provide any balance or enjoyment, and went away nearly entirely after about 10 minutes of air. a disappointment, but not unexpected after nearly 30 years.
