An Austrailian friend gave me a bottle (not imported) of 1997 that I kept in my cellar for 4 years before drinking. I drank it with steak and it was outstanding. I recently drank a bottle of the 1999 that I bought on-line and was imported (vs hand carried). It was good, but not as good at the 97 vintage. I plan to hold the remaining 5 bottle I ordered for several years to see if they improve with age. |
