I purchased just one bottle of this "Bordeaux blend" of d'Arenberg's in February of 2005 and just recently got around to opening the bottle. It is drinking extremely well now, with lots of complexity on both the nose and in the mouth. The nose includes a nice "leather" note. The wine is very smooth in the mouth, plenty of fruit though, with very nice finish. After I killed this only bottle, I checked to see what RP thought of later vintages, expecting I would go back to the wine shop and purchase a pile. It turned out that the wine shop still had another 10 of the 2002, and hadn't yet re-ordered any more of The Galvo Garage, but will be doing so soon. In any event, I recommend the 2002. I paid about $26 for that first bottle back in 2005, but with the case discount I got the remaining 10 for $24.

Terry thanks for the note...never even heard of this bottling. I am a big fan of The Dead Arm from them.
