Cork came out whole. Faded red color. Decanted overnight. Saved until 6:00 pm. Slight tan color. Tasted by a group of four wine lovers and they all loved it! One more bottle to enjoy.

Wow. Decanted and after 1 hour it opened up with a surprising bouquet of cabernet.. still good even after 15 years. I thought it was going to be a faded wine. Estancia really surprised me with this meritage.

Obtained a stressed bottle where the label was discolored from water or smoke. opened it for 2 hours and it was AWESOME! great balance, depth and smooth finish. would have liked to have tried this in it's prime. Was great with steak tonight.

Wine was surprisingly fresh. The fruit had declined but still was a nicely balanced wine.
