Seemed to have been corked but not surprised given its age. After about 3 days, the corkedness subsided and the fruit was very present - pretty remarkable!

Quite "grapey" upon first opening, but after a short while, it settled down into a perfectly pleasnat bottle of Cali Zinfandel. No pronounced tastes -- well integrated.

No cork taste or smell with this bottle. The wine didn't taste old - its flavor was round and juicy. Amazing after all these years.

Certainly past its prime but still drinkable. If you have any, drink it now!

Interesting wine - definitely slipping into old age but the acidity is holding this together. Very enjoyable bottle, but not profound. Drink up.
