Very high acid, taste of green ripe apples and some light flintstone.
Delicate and much bubbles left.
A really good bottle from Comtes.

F4. This wine continues to impress. Had the 1996 a couple of months ago and this was similarly dazzling. Such a nice balance of fruit and mineral. Still very fresh. Dinner at Guillaume’s.

Fantastic bottle - corked exited with a real pop which is always encouraging for an older bottle.
The full in Comtes nose has just dialled itself down but is there - lovely enveloping rich soft pastry brioche vibe. Nice sharp energy on finish, you know it’s old but not “old”
It’s like George Clooney or Elizabeth Hurley still got it in later age. Aged well

Holiday Dinner - Mostly Bordeaux (Taberna del Alabardero, Washington D.C.): Expressive nose displaying decadent yellow fruit, orange peel, clementine, a hint of baked apple, honey, brioche, oyster shell, coriander seed and mineral. There is a hint of dirty damp cellar which is distracting. Good concentration, nicely layered generous yellow fruit, ripe and rich, generous fine mousse, medium acidity and mineral, and a medium long ripe yellow fruit driven finish.
