This 1998 wine was supposed to be peak in 2003. Pleasant surprise! Old when IO bought it in January, it was very, very good last night. I did let it breathe for a couple of hours, but it was smooth and very full during the course of the "comfort food" meal.

without food seemed slightly weak, but with dinner this was a good wine....at all times it was good taste with little or no tannic, 30 + seconds of flavor
