Dinner party. Opened first bottle - funky, obviously oxidized. Opened the other bottle - same thing. They'd both been cellared and cared for well over the years. The thing I did notice was "something" was used as a cork. It wasn't cork. It wasn't a synthetic cork or vinolok. It was some kind of molded plastic or something. I'd never seen anything like it before. Maybe that was the problem?

DoA/corked. It's twin bottle from year ago was fabulous. They were bought, cellared, maintained, exactly the same. I dated twins once; same kind of story.
