1 person found it helpfulJan 20th, 2014So my second favorite pastime, tasting wine being my favorite of course, is bottle hunting (it’s so relaxing and full of surprises). Anyhow, a few months ago during one of those bottle hunting adventures I found this bottle in a tiny liquor store at a massive shopping center and snatched it for less than the hourly minimum wage, it had probably been sitting there for six years. After a careful decanting this is tasting pretty well. Now, I’ve had my fair share of bad bottles with this approach; but with this bottle I finally get: redemption! Some of my friends on this platform will understand my joy.
