The difference 40 years makes is maybe just a thin wooly blanket.
Pull it back and this thing's full of life - bright, vibrant, gas in the tank.
It’s brighter yellow than tired gold. Theres more fruit than decay. Sour apricots and yellow canned peaches, white popcorn and greasy bacon, and that foggy musk.
Acid rips through and does not give. Barely sweet with the demi-sec tag thats written right there but I'm not buying it.
Tonight this is 40 years old, just gettin' goin, just like me.

WOW. This is a reason to age wine. This was a birth year wine for me. This gal has just turned 31 and still knows how to have a classy time. Hazelnut. Macadamia nut. Fresh ground coffee beans. Unbelievable wine. Just a touch of sweetness on the tip of your tongue. Proud to be born in 1985. I don't want to finish this glass. Damn.
