it may not be vinegar but it is worth all the $4.99 you paid for it. Imp
guessing a little grenache, some zin, carignane and petite syrah. If it was
Geyser Peak's first or second vintage-it may be better than expected. I
recall the first few editions of Taylors California Cellars were pretty good
and better than Gallo & Inglenook their main competition, then once the
establish a client base they bought cheaper grapes to keep their price
point. I know when Robert Mondavi introduced their Red Table wine it was
pretty good, sort of the Yellow Tail of its day.

Its not going to get any better so drink it without decanting and have a
back up bottle ready in case the taste is gone. Can you imagine 30 year old
brett?
