God is this stuff good. Chilean Chard with a little bottle age on it in a very Burgundian style. I was worried that I might have to open 2 or 3 bottles to get one that was drinkable with the storage history on this but this was excellent and the other two appear to be in similar shape. Not much fruit left save a little lemon zest, but now the wine is all toast, espresso, and earth. Had with a veal roast for dinner with the families, which was a very nice match. Am very excited to drink the remaining two bottles. If you happen to have this, drink it very soon, it doesn't have a whole lot longer.

Nikki loved this. Surprising how much acidity remains in the wine, with nice quince, apple and tropical notes.

Lucky to only have one bad bottle considering the storage history, this was oxidized and had a nasty finish reminiscent of rotting pineapple.

This one not as good as the last but still very enjoyable. If you have any of this left drink asap.
