2000 Messina Hof Zinfandel, Barrel Reserve

Don't recall the price, and it was logged into the database that died. Suspect it was on the order of $11 by the case, and there are six more taking up space in the cellar.

Could be a bad bottle, but think it was more a case of this one not being structured to age at all. Had bought it without tasting, based on the '98 which I liked. Will now give it away as a "vintage cooking wine".
