Always wondered how this one would age, and then came across a 16-year-old bottle at auction. Loved the evolution of the originally-tight Mourvedre fruit from Pagani Vineyard, but unfortunately this bottle had just begun to go down for the count. Even so, during the first hour or so after a brief decant, it raised it Mourvedre head up for a bit and delivered a hint of what it had been at its peak. Drink up!
