@Roy Goble What do you think the aging curve is? Thanks .

Roy Goble

@Ira Schwartz Not sure but it was only bottled in 2014 so I’d assume thee are many years left

Wow, an amazing wine. Not the 100 points Parker gave it but still excellent. Lots of blueberry on the nose and first sips. I could get use to this! — 18 days ago

@Roy Goble Many great PS in the marketplace, I mentioned you on a Biale post I did several months ago. What was the vintage on this bottle? Thanks.

Roy Goble

@Severn Goodwin 2014, not sure why that’s not posted but maybe my fat thumbs were involved. It’s been open 24-hours

Severn Goodwin

Nice, likely this bottle had an an appropriate about of airing then.
