This was last bottle forgotten in the cellar, giving its and variety it was surprisingly not gone and drinkable, however I believe the best conditions were for sure 5 years ago.

  1. 9 years old - very interesting although you note that is only "drinkable". Better luck next time when discovering a lost bottle in your cellar!
