Tuesday, March 5, 2024 - From my dad’s Virginia cellar, he bought this on release in Massachusetts. It accompanied my parents moving to a Virginia, and last year back north to Connecticut to my cellar. Well traveled, but the wine is excellent. Hard to believe it’s almost 30 years old. It’s in a zone where the lingering fruit and aged bottle sweetness come together and amplify the wine. Ninety minutes after opening it’s even fresher than it was on opening, making me very glad to have another bottle. What is surprising is that there’s not a lot of aged character at this age. It’s not a full-fruited on release bruiser, but it hasn’t settled into retirement either. Probably another ten years or more to enjoy its evolution.
