November 23, 2022 - The bucket list gets one step closer to completion. Bought this as a curiosity years ago so I could say I'd had a wine older than I was, the "someday" to open it became 11/23/22. Shared over dessert at an early Thanksgiving lunch, the sweet caramel notes paired shockingly well with a cinnamon-y cherry pie. After the pie was gone, we continued to nurse the remainder of the bottle until it was empty (except for the large amount of sediment clinging to the bottle's side). Thankfully, the wine had enough acidity to keep it from being cloying. It's now twice in a few weeks that bottles I made as "what the hell?" purchases (the other being a 1971 D'Oliveiras Sercial) turned out to be real pleasures on consumption. Should I start caring less about what I buy?
