Thursday, March 30, 2023 - Olive Garden Party (Cristal vertical) (Chicago, IL): Wine of the tasting, without a doubt. Laser-focussed, but lemon cream at the same time, this just has it all. The acidity is pronounced here versus all the other wines, but it's not in your face. This is perfectly balanced and simply put, a complete wine. Given the weight and acidity here, this is undoubtedly the Cristal to own and age if one had to choose but one vintage.
