I decided to open one last night. The cork smelled a little off when I opened the bottle and poured it into the decanter. I kept my fingers crossed since I was really looking forward to trying this wine. I have really enjoyed Mark Herold's other projects. Sadly this bottle was corked. Aaagggghhhh! I hate corked wines!! Sent an email to Buccella to see if they had any other complaints of corked 02's. I hope my other 2 are OK.

Based on the times I have tasted this wine, "OK" is the best you can hope for.

Agreed, Bob. Wine is a bit over the top for me.

These comments don't make me want to run and open one up.

Well, here is the good news. After emailing Bill Deem at Buccella about the corked bottle he is kindly sending me a replacement bottle from their library wines. I wasn't really expecting to get the bottle replaced but I'm not going to complain.
