August 24, 2014 - 68 was corked. It had a cheesy taste. 78 was less foul to me but others dissented. 88 was really oxidized and was like drinking flat coke. the 58 was everyone's "WOTN".

July 28, 2011 - Farewell to La Masia. This bottle was not just a sentimental fulfillment, but the fuse for a pretty wild goodbye party. Turns out the wine was delicious too, full of life at 40+ and with a few sips left and some Spanish meatballs the wine was still getting better. Proof that wine pairing is not always just with the food. Au Revoir Fossi!
