11/11/2006 - alderyarrow wrote: 100 pointsLight blood-red in the glass this wine has a nose that makes me want to take off all my clothes and leap screaming into a New York subway car. How can a wine smell this good? An amazing perfume wafts from the glass with a gorgeous vanilla caramel aspect that befits its age, and an altogether astonishing red and tropical fruit character of youth that ends up more floral (don't ask me what kind of flowers) than fruity in my final assessment. In the mouth it has (unbelievably) incredible acid balance, perfect poise and a texture that reinforces the earlier decision to get buck naked with this wine. Seriously. I'd kick Angelina Jolie out of my bed to drink it. Redcurrant, raspberry, a garrigue-like medley of fresh herbs, and exotic spices mark a few of the high points of the aria this wine sings as it moves down the tongue. Its finish is a 90 second soprano-belted high note that seems like it SHOULD break the glass, it is so clear and pure. There aren't enough good expletives available to say how awesome this wine is. I only wish I could afford to buy some of it. I'll have to settle for never pissing off the friend I know who has a couple more bottles in the futile hopes that I might be around one day when he opens another. |

11/26/2022 - Windacre in the Slope Likes this wine: 100 pointsWow, what a fascinating adventure old Chardonnay is. Golden color, like an old Sauternes, the nose is actually somewhat fresh and the initial mouthfeel is green apples, but after about 10 seconds in the mouth this intense buttery richness floods the mouth, really an extrodinary experience. |

3/25/2019 - Bruno DALBIEZ Likes this wine: 98 pointsOpened a couple of hours (at least) before drinking. Along with a sous-vide, slow cooked duck breast. First the colour: beautiful dry blood, deep colour. First nose of red currants and raspberries, evolving towards more earthy scents of wood, and fresh mushrooms. What strikes me is the elegant balance: it is incredibly smooth, with an absolute perfect balance of acidity and sweetness. The tanins are still very much here, but soft as silk. The first sip was not particularly long, but now, about 30 minutes after my first sip, wow!, very nicely long, withl a very pleasant slight black fruit note on the back of the tongue and upper palate. WHat a pity that this was our last bottle! I think it still has a few years in it; not decades, but easily 8 or 10... I cannot think of ANY better occasion than my wife’s birthday to have it!. |

10/9/2015 - CO_Roots13 wrote: 97 pointsWine of the night! Smokey pollen, stone fruit, minerality and a ton of things I can't define came through on the excedingly expressive nose. The palette's elegance and complexity was matched by its balance. Citrus, and stone fruit come through on the palette and lead into a long, lingering finish. There was so much about the wine that I could not put words to. It is simply one of the finest white wines I've every had and shows how age can bring wine into a class unto itself. |

6/8/2020 - yodamark Likes this wine: 97 pointswhat a treat to try such a rare old burgundy. Tim found this one in his cellar and after 90+ years the cork had finally decided enough was enough and failed. the wine had started to leak out slowly and a nice little truffle looking nodule growth of black and white was growing on the edge of the top of the bottle. Reminded me of something ...never mind. |

12/27/2012 - ldorf Likes this wine: 97 pointsThis wine continues to amaze us. Opened and drank over several hours (put the cork back in lightly between pours to keep it from over oxidizing) and it just got better and better. The perfect old Burgundy made at one of our favorite places... Hospices de Beaune. |

Delightful structure and darker fruit flavours coming through. A silky long finish to savour. Sadly the end of the bottle came too soon for me ! |

2/24/2024 - shafer1994 Likes this wine: 97 pointsStill fresh and youthful. Big and buttery wine in a great place right now. Light yellow color, very complex nose. Delicate notes of pear, honey melon, lemon, honey, almond and even crispy white chocolate. Fills easily a big glas, very intense. Very long, well balanced and elegant finish. No signs of age. Went very well with fish but is also a stand-alone-monument. Even better on day two. |
