Still had very good flavor and depth. A bit fruity at the start but really developed after being open for about 30 mins. Drinking well right now and should have a little life left in it.

This wine hit the spot at dinner with grilled beef. On the pour the wine was still a deep ruby color with just the hint of bricking around the edge. Carried its age well. Great CS flavors that just seemed to go on and on. Finished like the champ that it is.

Still showed nicely for 28 years, indicating that it had been well cared for. But still, time to drink up before it is too late.
