B BJ BJ Oct 24, 2009 #2 Thanks. Nice stuff w about that much age. In fact, I'm looking at a bottle of 94 right now.
B BJ BJ Nov 2, 2009 #3 The aforementioned 94 was awful. Way overoaked. Bottle seemed like it was in good condition so they may have just overdone it. They seem to skirt the edge on new oak and went over the top in this vintage. For all of his assault in Mondovino, not the most traditional producer.
