    1/23/2021 8:00:00 AM - This has closed down a bit, for me anyways, over the last month. I’d recommend a 2 hour decant if drinking today or wait a couple years for it to reawaken. Borrowed this, but it’s spot on: “Geyserville is a crazy wine. At age 3 or 4, a very worthy, tasty BBQ Zin. At age 8 or 10, an emerging claret-style prize. At age 12-15+ an absolute world-class wine. This wine has as long a drinking window as any I can think of - but it is constantly evolving.”
