I loved this wine a few years ago, and found a bottle in the back of my "cellar" this year. Took a chance and opened for V-day with my fiancé. Sadly, this bottle was well past it's prime, and had gone off to boot. Ended up having a glass after airing out for a few hours and then tossing the rest. Let's hope the '08 is still showing...

Needed a bit of time to open up, but good texture and depth. The wine looks purple colored. The legs are medium. There is no sediment in the bottle. It tastes like fig, plum and stoniness. The body is medium/full. The wine has smooth texture. The wine finishes long. The wine has medium acidity.
