Re: 1994 vintage Woodbridge Portacino

I did finally decide to open a bottle. I have four bottles on hand. Seriously, I don't beleive this one is capable of aging. There is some sign that the wine component is fairly decent, although I would hazard to say, it appears to be lacking in the fruit department at this point. There is also a peculiar aroma, more like a unpleasant smell about it. I would be speculating here, but it gives me the impression that they fortified it with a poor grade brandy, in fact I would go so far as to say it wasn't brandy at all and someones poor example of moonshine. Needless to say, I am dissapointed.
