After 45 years the cork came out easily -- but in 2 pieces.
Initially the nose is a bit muted and typical of its age. Color is medium ++, still a beautiful California Cab color with rusty colors along the edge. A remarkably flavorful wine that walks the edge between old and new worlds. No strong vinegar aroma or flavor. There is a pleasing dry finish with some acidity. Remarkably solid given its age.
An hour in, it lost its oomph. Procured from my dad's cellar.
