Monday, March 11, 2024 - While it is 6 years old, I think this wine would have benefited from a decant. The wine really evolved over 2 days. It came out of the bottle with a golden yellow color, and someone commented that it looked like urine. The wine initially was off putting to 2 of the people who drank it. To the point that they thought it had gone bad. I thought it had a very interesting nose of wet stones and briney oysters. The wine initially had a slightly oxidized/almond flavor profile, so I thought my guests might be right. I put half the bottle back in the fridge and we moved on to another wine. When I went back to the bottle the following night, it was a completely different wine. The fruit had emerged, there was definitely an briney annd stone flavor but the wine was much more balanced with a long and delicious finish.
