Magnum bottle- forgot I had it, and opened it up for a Labor Day bbq. Surprisingly decent. Good integrated flavors, and moderate finish. Glad I drank it now, don’t see much kid left in it.

From a 375, a good steak wine. Nothing ponderous, perhaps slightly in decline from a smaller bottle, becoming a little astringent. Still a good mature cab for dinner.

Really smooth and easy to drink. A great aged cheap bottle of wine to mix it up a bit. Still needs a little time to breath. I would say it was past its prime but it never had one.

I hated this when it was released but love it now! unreal smooth, sexy, velvety, and lots of 30 year old bordeaux flavors. I laughed every sip I had. I was going to throw these bottle out. Nuts!

This is crazy that a $18 bottle of wine thats 11 years old tastes like a 2nd-3rd growth bordeaux from the late 80's - early 90's. Nose doesn't smell like an old bordeaux but the finish tastes like it. We have had this bottle in our cellar since 2004. I just found it and opened it as a joke. It was better than I imagined it would be.
