Found October 2013
It causes me great pains to write such a review - because I am usually a fan of wines from Lailey - but at Thanksgiving I decided to open a few older bottles with the family. Now I have to take some responsibility for this bottle, after all I was the one who waited this long to open it; but how else do we learn about older wine unless we store them away and open them on a rainy day. Now I know Zweigelt isn't known for it's robust and fresh fruit character but this one was pure badness: leathery, pencil shavings, band-aid along with caraway seed, and even more band-aid. There was not one person who could find a redeeming feature about it ... chalk this one up to experience - thankfully we had some other excellent bottles that night. Lost & Found Rating: Trash
