Sunday, January 3, 2016 - Big Gambles (Home): Many moons ago, I had bartered to get this bottle from a retailer.
An occasion to open it had never come up, and it was likely the bottle had gone completely over. It was definitely over the hill, but not so far as to be in the tearfully-pour-it-down-the-sink category.
The nose showed a little VA, which blew off leaving a sherry-like aroma. Color was old gold. There was no harshness on the palate, but also not a lot to taste. Where the wine showed its breed was on the back end. The remnants of the wine's minerality were obvious. This was a beautiful lady about 5 years past her prime.
