One of the most oxidized bottles of wine I've ever had the misfortune to smell, much less taste (and then promptly spit out, including a little barf). Purchased from WineBid two years ago, so who knows. The cork was quite stained. Wow this was bad.

I open one of these every 3 to 6 months and lately the last 3 bottles I've opened have been bad. Is anyone else having issues with this wine at this time? Smells like vinegar, tastes worse. I'm a huge AMV fan and probably have over 100 bottles or reserve, esperance etc. Just wondering if it's a cellaring issue, bad luck with corks, or the wine is in a funk stage.

plums and cherries up front but then finishes with an earthy spice of cinnamon and nutmeg. This thing could have probably used another few years in the bottle.

Completely disjointed. Over the hill and undrinkable.

Rhone like nose, herbaceous, leather, a little bit of band-aid.
Oak, tobacco, cranberry and herbal flavors, long finish.
