June 7, 2012 - The bottle I opened (bought at Walla Walla GO) was similar to the one described/reviewed here (http://grossoutwine.wordpress.com/2012/05/29/2003-louis-bernard-vacqueras-red-rhone-france-4-99/): super sludge on cork, pretty funky at the beginning. I took this camping and disappointedly set it aside when it was not a simple “crowd-pleaser” and moved on to something else. But I corked it and took it home, I tasted and drank from it over the next few days and it definitely became more approachable. I ended up drinking 7/8ths of it. But it’s still not something I’m dying to buy more of. Too bad, because the bottle is certainly attractive.
