This was completely fantastic wine. I got this bottle as a present in 2004 and was keeping it for special moment.We opened it at the end of Christmas dinner and later vacuumed it and finished it yesterday in the evening before New year. I really enjoyed this wine. It had everything in it, full body, concentrated taste, bottle maturity and slight residual sugar, which was not too high and perfectly complemented the expressive taste and higher alcohol. (extract was 26.5g/l).
