March 20, 2020 - Bought 6b from Sam's for 17/b 17 years ago; this is #3. Decanted with normal sediment for its age. Broad amber edge with ruby core; old leather, tea, some red berry fruit that followed on the palate. Interesting and mildly pleasant with food but well beyond prime. Overlooked for too long in a dark corner. Stored horizontally in a cool, dark basement since purchase. Since this was well past prime, I'm not evaluating it.
