  Cork crumbled and smelled a bit weird which made me nervous. Glad I opened it when I did and glad the wine seemed unbothered by the cork, must have just been the top that was brittle. Definitely a senior wine. Notable bricking. But the brilliant elegant strawberries and florals are still there in the nose and palate, still with deep concentration but now less flamboyant, more self assured. New is a pleasant, forresty, herbal, pepperminty note that anchors the middle before vanilla cherries round out the finish.
  
  Edit: on day 3, the attack is fronted by warm spices and it really adds another dimension. Makes me think this wine (bottle/cork aside) could have gone more distance.

  Definitely showing it's age. Stored properly upon purchase, but at least this bottle is done. I'd recommend drinking up!

  Drank over 3 nights in May 30 - June 2 with salmon, pulled pork and swedish meatballs. Very food friendly with that paired well with each dish. Nice acidity and mouthfeel. Good weight that did not overpower any of these dishes.
