Revisiting Geyserville 2004

After allowing the Ridge Geyserville 2004 vintage to rest (after opening), I tasted it 3 days later. The flavors have now changed dramatically. The alcoholic flavor has subsided and blended into the big fruity background. This wine continues to gain "jammy" flavors as it is exposed to air. Overall, the best time to have this wine appears to be 1 day after opening and allowing exposure.
