My contribution to the evening. Decanted 10 hours. Some VA on the nose - not too much to be unpleasant. Chocolaty and thinner than other bottles of this that I have had. Not a good bottle.

SWM88. Red, 50% opaque. Nose: I thought corked. Generally I am not sensitive to TCA (though more than I was), but this was corked and increasingly so. To taste red fruit, burnt notes, the fruit very red and long.

I did own a full case of this, watched it over the years and the alcohol never got integrated. One that I do not like
