Anything but Port, this includes all wines other than fortified wines (which have their own section) even if they call themselves Port. There is a search facility for this part of the forum.

2005 Chryseia

Post by Andy Velebil »

Was at the offsite storage and found this. Recalling my last experience with it, I figured it was best to see if it was an off bottle. Decanted about 2 hours. This was simple, lacking any structure or complexity, and even though it had some fruit left that fruit was very "flat" tasting. As if when a can of Coke loses its carbonation. Other older vintages, like the 2001 and 2004, are still very good and holding nicely. This vintage is falling apart at the seams. Drink up as soon as possible.
