My worries about this being too old were unfounded when I opened it. Had been perfectly stored since day 1 at my local wine shop. Fabulous levels of fruit despite the age, and about a 10-20 second finish with a beautiful nose to it. After 2 hours was starting to fade though, but superb for the first hour. A real bargain had here for 25 bucks (local shop had a 50 percent cellar clear out)

Pale mature ruby, just starting to brick. Gorgeous old claretty nose. This is class. Very elegant, light, yet with complex depths. Lovely aged cabernet sauvignon. Fab.
