- nice, usually they just get 'thin'...if the cork isn't dried out and crumbly or if the wine isn't dripping out then its usually ok. - zeitgeist Feb 12, 19:27 2
  - These would have been bought when they were fairly young. I don't think we ever spent more than about $20 for a bottle. I've been reluctant to - MojaveMeg Feb 12, 19:34 1
    - When I went to fund raiser auctions, collections of old wines were usually the highest over bids, people offering 30-50 per by the mixed case - zeitgeist Feb 12, 19:46

    - what else ya got meg? I'm so jealous of what you're drinking now - I had that bottle - drank it and enjoyed it very much - it was one I inherited as - JenBro Feb 12, 19:36 18
      - ooooh, that Opus should be something, and oversized bottles that are not jug wines means it was meant for long term storage - zeitgeist Feb 12, 19:50 6
        
        Yeah, I think Opus was one of those that was out of our price range from the beginning :) -- nm - MojaveMeg Feb 12, 19:53 5
        
        IIRC they were released at 50 bucks? which in the early 80's 10x my usual expense, I mean $10 bucks was a good one and 20 was average in a restaurant -- nm - zeitgeist Feb 12, 20:14 4

        omg, I *remember* that one, a 'private reserve' that I took to a dinner party that turned to be more pot than luck, and yeah its a good one - zeitgeist Feb 12, 20:01 9
        
        Nope, this isn't the reserve :( I may just take a chance and throw it in the cooler for our trip this weekend... - MojaveMeg Feb 12, 20:12 6
        
        you totally should Meg ... sharing wine with friends is the only way to drink it IMHO -- nm - JenBro Feb 12, 20:26 5
        
        It would make a change from the Two Buck Chuck that we usually drink :) - MojaveMeg Feb 12, 20:36 4
