The wine, which scored a perfect 100 rating, is described by Robert Parker as:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8230;truly one of the immortal wines of the century. This wine is easily identifiable because of its remarkably exotic, over-ripe, sweet nose of black fruits, coffee, tobacco, mocha, and Asian spices. An extraordinarily dense, opulent, and rich wine, with layers of creamy fruit, it behaves more like a 1947 Pomerol than a structured, powerful, and tannic 1945. The wine finishes with a 60+ second display of ripe fruit, extract, and sweet tannin. This remarkably youthful wine (only light amber at the edge) is mindboggling!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Given the stellar review and the astonishing price tag, we can only imagine the thieves are tucked away somewhere prepping invitations for what promises to be a truly fantastic wine tasting party. Either that, or they intend to resell the wine and use the profits to buy about 1,000 gallons of Carlo Rossi.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8203;In a heist that sounds far from elaborate, a woman distracted a liquor store cashier while two men reached into a cooler marked, &#8220;Rare Wines&#8221; and grabbed a couple bottles each.
