Thursday, December 2, 2004 - Roy Hersh's 1990 & older tasting of "Wines that don't suck" (Sammamish, WA, USA): Well this was a freaking treat and a GREAT way to get back on track! Thank you so much Rod for bringing this impeccable bottle from the year my Dad graduated from college. The nose show caramel, creme brulee and gobs of botrytis with that faint vinyl smell I often get. The palate is rich and well resolved with maple syrup, orange creamsicle and stunning depth. Who needs actual dessert when you can drink it in pure liquid form? The best part was the nearly endless, beautiful finish. Had I not enjoyed a 1967 Château d'Yquem back in October, this wine would have been my clear benchmark for Sauternes. Awesome!
