Bought two months ago. Double decant. Two magnums. One was lower on neck. Corks not in great shape, yet came out whole. The lower on neck at first taste was old vinegar, higher on neck a bit flat w/ alc and astringency. No matter Got to restaurant and poured higher first. Completely lovely aged and complex Pinot. Ethereal and gone in a dreamy blink. Low neck bottle also came into its own, yet missed the fruit of the more perfect bottle. Yet much improved from first taste after decant. I thought I had lost and then we won.

Didn't show that well with a chicken Caesar and probably could have used a decant.
