Bought in a mixed case lot for fun. Cork was toast but pushed into bottle and filtered and all was fine. 25 years later this was delicious. Amazingly still brick red with only amber on the edges. Nose of candied. Gerry and plum. Still some cherry and plum flavours with some nuttiness. Not much or any oak. Hit of tannins and a tiny bit of acidity.
Went wonderfully with turkey dinner.
