Saturday, February 10, 2024 - per usual, reports of the death of this wine was greatly exaggerated. (I find drink by dates in CT are typically conservative for my taste - unless it's a well made Rioja which people seem to give a 40 years past vintage...) Maybe I just like aged wines. Had this with Gordon Ramsy's butter based ny strips. Delicious. I have one more which I'll hold onto for at least 2-4 more years. It tasted to me like it could stand up to a legit 15 yo napa cabs. Lots more dark fruit and body and sweetness than I imagined it would have. I haven't had one in a long time, but I'm going to keep picking them up if I see them in the 20-25 range, that's crazy good for the price at this age.
