8th bottle of this wine tasted. Last in March 2015. This bottle is however sealed with screw cap, was stored in really cool cellar and showslimited bottle maturity tones comparing to previous corked sealed bottles.As mentioned several times screw cap is simply the best sealer for wine irrespective of the wow and tradition aspect of real cork.
