    July 31, 2023 - Tried 2 bottles that have been kept for 10 years in perfect conditions. Unfortunately, both way past it

    June 8, 2023 - Wow! What a surprising wine! When I opened the bottle the wine was brown and tasted old and oxidized. However I did what I always do which is to put a stopper back in and stick it in the refrigerator. Four days later the wine had changed completely. It now had changed color to a deep purplish red and had developed an outstanding nose and palate. I continue to be amazed with how wines can change when given the correct time and conditions.

    February 17, 2023 - So I bought a cellar; 11/12/2022-12/31/2030: Sadly corked. I opened at home before the wine tasting, and didn't notice the corked smell, it just didn't really have a nose at all. When poured into the glass though, there it was. I've had corked wines that were much worse, but this one was not drinkable.

    (Antinori Tignanello) Dark red violet color with pale meniscus; lovely tobacco, leather and tart cassis nose; tasty, smoky, mushroom, leather palate with good acidity; medium-plus finish (poured blind for my friends, a couple of whom were guessing mature Pomerol, perhaps L'Evangile)
