Thursday, December 26, 2013 - The bottle was in perfect condition. No seepage. The cork nearly came out in one go. It was soaked most of the way.
It was the oldest VP I tried, so don't have much for comparison, hence no score.
It was v v enjoyable. So smooth to drink, alcohol perfectly integrated. Red colored, perfectly translucid - tons of sediment came out. Decanted it 4 hrs from when dessert started, 6h30 from now.
Nearly finished the bottle along w my parents and in-laws (neither drinks much). At a point had emptied my glass and smelled it. Soooo wonderful. Hard to put it in words. The aromas were so nice, like noble wood, honey.
Didn't feel old at all. In fact, could see it mellow out further.
It was v sweet. I was ok w that but it was overwhelming for my father in law.
