  September 14, 2012 - This one was forgotten in the cellar. Time has not eliminated what others have noted. Fizzy, sour, undrinkable and right down the drain.

  January 2, 2011 - Both bottles I purchased were spoiled. This one undrinkable. Heavy with brett.

  September 23, 2010 - Forgot that I had seen this had issues and it was still in the cellar. Wife had opened for dinner. Fizzy but still had a nice nose. So about 5 minutes of vigorous shaking and then let it rest a while. Repeated one more time and the CO2 was mostly gone. Enjoyable enough with my spanish rice and sausage but still a bit sparkling. Definitely flawed.

  June 5, 2010 - Yup, it had lots of CO2, but at least no bret, the way my previous bottle of this wine had. That one went down the drain. This one was enjoyable, but spritzy to the end. (Editor's note: scored as 90 but changing to flawed)

  January 4, 2010 - My experience was similar to other posters, a flawed wine, which seemed to have some secondary fermentation? Carbonated with very sour fruit. I opened my second bottle that was equally flawed. I would encourage tasters with similar experience to contact the winery, as they would surely make things right. This is not indicative of any other VC wine I have had.
