Just stumbled upon this etched bottle stashed away in its little coffin amongst my Halloween decorations and promptly freaked out that I had waited long past its prime to drink. Plus, just stored in my basement all these years. Happily it's still drinking quite well... pleasantly surprised. Tannins still strong and structured! Delicious!!

This seems to be improving with some time in the bottle. Lovely fruit with some spiciness. Alcohol has mellowed from the tail end. Hoping this will continue to evolve over the next few months.

Really peaking right now. Better than bottle 9 months ago. Sadly tonight's was my last. Should still be excellent another year or so. Enjoy
