Better than previous bottles from this year but still well short of the usual quality of this wine. Given the advanced age, no reason to expect that any remaining bottles will be better. Drink up.

Disappointing. Sour, vinegary and a bit volatile. No fruit. If this was ever a good wine, its time is long gone--and this coming from a big Monsanto fan.

Dark berry fruits and still has some tannins after 23 years in the bottle.

Unfortunately slightly corked. Some fruit and tannins still alive.

Not as awful as the previous bottle... actually drinkable but very unimpressive relative to better vintages from this estate.
