I will not provide a score for this wine because I do not have a unitary opinion of it. When first opened it pretty much tasted as if it was over the hill. Not foul, but far from top form. I stowed the bulk of the bottle it in the fridge to use for cooking, which I did (great in the pan with scallops). Just for the hell of it, as I was about to use the last of it (this is after a few weeks, maybe a month), I took a sip and it was quite tasty. In fact, I poured myself a good half glass to finish the bottle. You tell me.

Bought a few of these a few years ago, and sort of forgot about them. Although View from the Cellar gives this a drinking window of up to 2015, I think that is a bit generous. My bottle was not shot, but I think it was past prime. Still reasonable, but almost no sugar, acidity still there, fruit not so much. Drink 'em if you got 'em.

Way over the hill. Probably at best a cooking wine....
