Another Ruined Bottle

1999 Fonseca LBV for $20
Shane’s Notes

It looks like this ruined bottle was the result of an overfill. There was a sugary, port residue covering the neck of the bottle before we even opened it. I wish we had noticed this in the store. We’ve had the Fonseca 1999 before, so we know just how ruined (oxidized) this one was. It was drinkable but it had turned into a bland, sugary syrup instead of the flavorful LBV we remember.
