Definitely viable and engaging. Perhaps a bit simple but also very accessible. Fruit is very forward, maybe a bit cloying for some but surprisingly enjoyable. Did not expect this bottle to still be drinkable. Happy to have been wrong. Based on what I’m tasting now, I suspect I could have held it another 5, maybe 10 years.

Lovely and still quite drinkable with surprisingly good structure, although I wouldn't wait much longer.
