Funk on the nose and fell flat. Not anything like the developing gem I had tasted 5-6 times before from this case. Bad bottle? Did I miss its peak? 8 yr old well made Italian red... hmmm. Will see what the other 4 bottles do.

Uh oh, hit a bad bottle. This 8 year Spanish tempranillo tasted like a freshly bottled sweet tart Pinot Noir with no earth notes and zero finish. Down the sink it went. Hopefully a fluke as a have a few more bottles.

Correction to the entry:
This is a chardonnay, not gamay as the label indicates.
I've not consumed it yet.
