| Had 1 bottle. Thought that it would be ready to go now. Why I thought that, I do Not know. It is Not ready, @ all. Hate to waste a good, (no, great) bottle of Wine.
Decanted for about 45 minutes. NOT NEARLY ENOUGH. Never opened. I held it in a glass for another 30 minutes. Never opened.
The potential for this Wine is Great. WOW. Chocolate, Great Aroma. Fruit just explodes. BUT...
Now, I rate it a 93. But, like I said, the potential is higher.
HOLD. | | |
