As my birthday weekend draws to a close, we have planned a nice Sunday dinner at home.
We chose a 1999 Daniel Gehrs "Methuselah" to accompany a nice big porthouse and grilled artichokes.
This bottle is one of the oldest in our collection and was amazing bright and bold upon opening.
We chose to decant while making preparations and have found it to mellow considerably over the last couple of hours. The Methuselah is velvety smooth and inviting, a Bordeaux style red from St Ynez Valley. I wish I could remember exactly when we acquired it!
