95 Points

Thursday, December 22, 2016 - Pre-Holiday WDTS: Light gold color. Drank 1+ glass over 40 minutes. Another rock solid bottle of '04 Comte; such a pretty wine to say the least. Lovely green fruits, pear and apple, nice focus and purity, floral, nicely autolytic, fine bead. The palate is so refined and elegant, pear, green apple, lacy, toasty, almond, great acid and very long. This was a tiche warm or it might have resonated even more!
