Opened this last night with fresh caught (by a neighbor) New York State Salmon Trout, which I simply roasted with salt, pepper, garlic, butter and some white wine.

The wine had the BIG Behrens nose and flavor profile.  Even at 8 years of age the wine is still inky dark purple and a bit of a tannic monster.  Air calmed the wine a bit and allowed the sweet red and black fruits to come forward.  Perhaps not the best of matches with the fish but, I had not pulled a cork all week and I felt some re-visiting an old friend so this was the answer.

No regrets but, not blown away either.  88 point on a scale of 100.
