Having read previous notes was nervous about trying this cellar relic. In fact, turned out to be a pleasant surprise. Initially thin, it opened up remarkably within 30 minutes. Surprising fruit if clearly a little too old. Probably best to drink up any remaining bottles.

14.1% ABV. Quick impressions at a party. Translucent slightly cloudy, rusty garnet. Slightly funky pinot underbrush green nose. Medium-bodied and high toned with tangy copper/metallic and red berry fruit. Not great. Probably past prime.
