Opened this for a friend's birthday, drank with a fish soup. Bought for $20 from mark down bin in early 90s, kind of forgot about the bottle. Was afraid it might have been too old. Cork moist and soft but came out whole. As soon as I smelled it from the bottle, I knew it was OK, but did not expect a glorious wine. As noted, the color was an astonishing pure gold. Sweet but good acid. Honey, flowers, apricot. Our party was bowled over.
