Took to Ol at Regina's Argentinean Rest. Smelled a bit musty at the start, but opened up with time. Still not as good as previous bottles, so there was some flaw.

Bottle seemed to have lost all fruit flavors, was beginning to exhibit raisinated aromas and flavors. Storage at Astoria's Grand Wine & Liquors may have been questionable but most likely it is past its prime. Drink NOW. UPDATE: Given the recent reviews, I'm removing my score and assuming the bottle's storage deteriorated its quality. I'm declaring it cooked.

Nice bruising fruit...a bit rustic and rough when first opened, but became more integrated with a bit of air time. Dark fruit profile. Inky in the glass. Nice, really. Had with albondigas. 3.5+

Tannins have calmed down. I'm not getting any raisin-y smells or taste. Still yummy!
