A lost in the cellar bottle that somehow was not on my inventory. This bottle has moved locations 3 times since I bought it, and I was really unsure of what to expect. What I got was near greatness! Elegant, with a long finish. It went great with my sister-in-law's brisket!

Corked...bummer as I cellared this since 2005 and wanted to open in 20 years (close enough tonight). Soon as I sniffed the cork I knew. Was going to bring to a friends house for dinner so good thing I opened and was going to decant before discovering this at the dinner party.

Rich, elegant, black fruited with resolving tannins. A nice new world thing but maybe a bit anonymous. Hard to tell blind what it was, but universally enjoyed.

Decanted seven hours. Earthy. No fruit. Past its prime. Previous 99 was stellar. One more in my cellar of this SLNV vintage.
