my luck-1963 Fonseca

Post by John Vachon »

Last year a off bottle-my first in 40 years.

Today a lesser bottle(16/20)-most have been 19/20 or higher?

Any other opinions?

We're both bottles from the same source?

No.

The first was a 1 or 2 off.

But the 2/10 one was from a batch that I have had many times.

At 53 years old you're gonna start seeing bottle variations in any wine.
