Community Tasting Note

  • Gen NY Does not like this wine: 82 points

    November 19, 2022 - I bought this as a learning experiment. I wanted to know: what happens to vouvray sec after almost 20 years? My answer, based on this one bottle, is: “nothing good.”

    opened and slow ox’ed for 30 mins.

    The nose was medicinal, I could not get it precisely, but I am sure I’ve smelled that same smell in a hospital or dentist’s office. The taste was mostly of roasted lemon but with an undercurrent if stems and rotting leaves. It was not corked, just outliving its usefullness.

    I gave the rest of the bottle to my college kid and his friends, who were watching a movie. They didn’t seem to mind the taste and finished the btl in 30 mins.
