An orphan bottle in the cellar. CT says I drank my last bottle in 2017. I’m very happy my record keeping is so poor. This is a beautiful bottle in a perfect place of its evolution. Slightly subdued nose yet plush palate. Dense citrus, oyster shell minerality showing Chabis typicality, but then some pineapple and smoky scents threw me. Overall a delicious wine. Picq never fails to impress me. I’ve never found an oxidized bottle, and they drink well young and old. Picq Chablis is sometimes hard to find, but well worth seeking out.

Happily, this wine was much fresher than the 1/21 bottle and more similar to the 3/5/19 bottle.

This bottle is still holding up. Nice crisp austere flavors. Still a little pear showing through. Excellent!
