(March 21, 2019) … This wine came as quite the surprise … when you open these old bottles you half expect them to be absolute rubbish and you often wonder why you have them sitting in the cellar in the first place; but this was a pleasant surprise. First off the acidity was amazing, yes there was plenty of dried fruit, mainly raspberry, with a dose of white pepper, and while the wine was not complex by any means at this point in its lifespan, it was very tasty – and truthfully sometimes that’s all you want (and can hope for) in a wine this old.
