Did not decant. Wine is still in holding strong. The had tropical fruit with petrol and citrus on the palate. The finish was medium once the wine got a little air. I always enjoy trying aged wines to experience their character.

Celebratory pairing. 1) Glenfiddich 23 Year Old Grand Cru 2) 2006 Dom Perignon Champagne 3) 2020 Tenuta San Guido Sassiccaia 4) 1969 Weingut Muller Privat Rheinriesling Spatlese. A selection picked for each person. The Riesling was refreshing and quenching. It was a pleasant surprise.

Good expression of riesling: spice, honey, petrol, with good acidity. It is a bit "thin," but takes on a bit more weight with some air. I don't see much upside to continuing to hold.

On the sweeter end of Spatlese, but very nice with spicy Indian food. No rush - will only improve.

This was interesting. Given the vintage and I, wasn't sure what to expect. There was a bit of sweetness with some petrol and some fruit notes.
