Big bodied white with a hint of varnish beginning to creep in along the sides. Nice deep flavors with long finish. Varnish notes not as prevalent as bottle opened two years ago.

ahh, an old CNdP (white) resting gently in the cellar until that perfect moment when it should be opened to reveal ..... what exactly? This bottle had a hint of varnish on the nose that more or less covered over any fruit that may be left, a savoriness on the palate that was striking and a mineral laden finish that ended up pairing well with a strong french cheese that it was served with. Interesting. It wasn't bad, just really different.
Not as nice as my last bottle opened in 2013.

Very nice. Rich big mouth feeling, balanced, nicely integrated. Finish was a little short but otherwise all in all a great package! Stone fruits on the palate with smoke notes. Paired well with a roasted chicken and grilled fruits/veggies.
