Château la Croix des Moine Château la Croix des Moine

This wine was indicated as needing to be drunk something like a decade ago, so I opened it with a certain amount of trepidation. I needn't have worried - it was in perfect condition (although the cork was very soft). Well-balanced, decent levels of tannin. Enjoyable.

Opened three bottles on staggered basis over several hours. Wine took a long time to open up but was excellent once it had done so. Probably won't last much longer, though. Drink now.
