Rewards come to those that wait. This last bottle was ever so rich and flavorful. Fruit and bouquet were bursting through glass after glass. and the time to "open" seemed absolutely minimal.

A dark inky cab, classic Vince. Likely not his best vintage, came out of the bottle a bit hot and I didn't give it much of a chance to open up. Had second half of the bottle next day and it was Much more mellow

At least 92 and maybe higher. If it wasn't for my fellow Winer's beating up on VA...well they threw me off my game. Can anyone say, "LET IT OPEN UP"? Maybe drinking VA for the last 20 years has dulled both my brain, and my taste buds; but some of us have opened the bottles too soon. My first one was fine, and I expect the other 2 to be better.

Just let the wine open; you will have color, taste, fruit, and the lingering after effect that everyone looks for.
