August 9, 2014 - I agree with Mike Kopanski's note but my bottle (the last one at my local shop unfortunately) was fully open. Really nice surprise for $17. It oddly has rusticity and elegance at the same time, I'm not quite sure how to articulate it. More rustic in the nose and elegant on the palate. At any rate, lots of bright fruit, solid tannins, very pure tasting i.e. no obvious manipulation. Great stuff. I think it would have lasted several more years, and perhaps improved.
