Haley's "Aging Gracefully" list at Town Hall is super rad. So many awesome bottles at great prices. Forman 87 was ship shape. Black and juicy, with espresso, bitter chocolate, an black olive. Great structure, more life ahead. Great value. #aginggracefully

A really unusual and delicious wine. It had a briny quality to it. Great with oysters.

Incredible. Could not believe how well it has held up. One of the top 10 wines I’ve ever had.

Aged nicely. Still quite contained. A soured touch of wood. Dark cherry. Leather and a graves-like austerity. Excellent without being mindblowing.
