Served double blind, I was sure it was from the early 1950's. Discovering the wine was 100 years old was mind blowing! The nose, with its cornucopia of scents, mostly from the smoke, tobacco and earthy side also showed a strong cedar wood component. Amazingly, there was also red fruit remaining int eh spicy finish. This is one bottle I will not see again, but the memory is really going to linger.
