Had it a few months ago. One of the few 1986s I've had that seemed just about ready.
I only have one bottle of this, and other wines from the same cellar (bought at LWS) have been excellent. Would you define "just about ready" as within an optimal window, or as hold? I've no problem in laying this one back down.
I think, unlike most 1986s I've had, it's within its drinking window. I wouldn't be in a hurry to drink it, but I don't think it will improve much.

Thanks for the additional thoughts. It's standing, and I have a date in mind, so will likely open this month.

i think you need to scrub teh 01, 99 and the 87 and replace them with wines whose vintages begins with 1 and ends in 2
G-man good call.

Or even more appropriate, fill up on wines from this year: NZ sauvignon blanc and beaujolais nouveau!
Happy Birthday Mangiare!
Hope all your wines show well!
I'm also celebrating a 12/12/2012 birthday tomorrow! I will be enjoying some wine, just not comparable to yours!

Happy Birthday Guys!
I hope you are as blessed as I am today. I awoke to my 2 and 1/2 year old singing Happy Birthday at 5:00am.
Totally priceless.
All the best!
