Crazy good bottle of wine over 20 years old. Dark ruby color. Faint smells of cedar. The beauty is in the taste on the tongue. So smooth and elegant. Berry and leather.

Wonderful magnum from Chateau Montelena. Hard to believe it is from 2008. Bright yellow color. Crisp, lemony, with hint of apple.

Was thinking this was too old and almost didn’t open it today. Wow, it was very bright and only showed a slight hint of age in taste. Very nice bottle to sip in front of the fireplace.

Wonderful Magnum. Elegant and super smooth on the tongue. While not much fragrance for the nose, still a nice berry note. Went well with grilled filet.

My last of 6 2011 750. OMG. Still had a light straw color hue in the glass. Very sumptuous and wonderful texture. Hints of citrus, pear and sugar cookie. Still cellaring a magnum.

Wow. Aromas are of a well aged Bordeaux in a California overlay. Deep dark red color and spice smells. Fig, licorice and nutmeg. Wish I had more.

Hard to believe based on other reviews. This wine was on point tonight. Deep purple color. Smells of ripe berries, Bourbon and cassis. Long finish that coats and delights the tongue.

Wow. Very wonderful bottle. Smooth and low acidity. Would have rated a 95 until the last glass at the 2.5 hour point. The aromas opened up to cigar and spice box. Truly amazing. If I had only waited to let it open up more. Could have been a hundred.

Another amazing bottle of wine from Mr. Woodbridge. Spice box smells and velvety smooth. Closed some after 45 minutes and started to reopen at 120 minutes. Tastes of cherries. 5 more bottles to go.

This bottle was the cat's meow. Spice box smells until the very end. Deep dark purple color. Long, long finish. One bottle left. Not sure it can live up to this one.

We were married in 1988. Pulled this out as we were putting up our Christmas tree. While it is an older Champange, it went very nice with Some Christmas Cookies. Light bubbles.

Drank for friend's 21st weeding anniversary. Cork was perfect. Wine was young and while French, it was very berry and silky smooth. .
