flwino,
thanks for the TN! I have some bottles of that in my cellar as well, I paid USD 19. I didn't dare to open one of them already - wasn't it still very closed? I thought to open my first 1998 Bordeaux around 2005...

My local wine retailer always waits at least ten years to open a claret, even if the year is not too good. It always pays to wait.
