anyone out there popped a bottle of the 97 hess collection lately? i only had 2 bottles left, and opened one recently when a friend was in town and we grilled some porterhouses. it was definitely an off bottle. nose seemed OK (though not as deep as i would have expected), but the taste was wrong. wouldn't say it was corked, more likely cooked i'd guess (but not badly so. it was drinkable). flavors weren't distinct at all, and it had a bit of an earthy/musty component to it. just a major disappointment. i only have 1 bottle left now and i'm not sure how long to wait to open it. and wonder what i will find when i do...
