December 29, 2015 - Cork disintegrated, but wine OK with straining/decanting. Way too old by rights but apparently undamaged. Strong, raspberries evident, sort of like a too high alcohol less sweet dessert wine.

April 11, 2010 - More raspberry wine than grape. At first it was kind of refreshing, although very sweet. As the bottle sat there, the fruitiness started to muddle. I kind of wish I had another bottle to try an experiment: reduce it down and add some chocolate as an ice cream or cake topping.
