  30 minutes decant/glass time. Rotten, soft, discolored cork w/some seepage. Deep dark purple color w/some brown edge due to heavy sediment clouding. "Off" attributes blew off completely. Tremendous nose of alcohol & cab. No cork or mustiness whatsoever. Wonderful wine with no "too old" taste. Very full bodied with a long finish tainted only ever so slightly with that chewy/chalk tannin one gets from the stirred up sediment. Outstanding for a 33 year old wine and what a treat. $19.95 when purchased.
