While there was no noticable damage indicating oxidation and no sign of being corked, this wine was undrinkable. The nose was like burning tire and rotten fruit and it filled the room. My initial impression was that it tasted like a muddy chemical cleaner. After leaving open overnight it softened considerably but the flavors were unpalatable and still tasted like muddy rotten fruit.

This is still drinking pretty well, but I wouldn't wait any longer. Nice berry fruit has lasted and the tannins are gone.
