  September 19, 2015 - Chenin Fest: 28 Loire Chenin Blancs from 1995 - 1997. (Don Rice's.): Showed just as it did a couple of months ago. The wine was a bit too over the top for almost all present, but I warned them that it needed some air for the acidity to come up and balance out the wine, but no one listened. A couple of days later I heard from Don that he watched the bottle evolve and I was correct. Vindication! A deep amber color and incredibly intense and sweet on the palate with lots of honey, apricot jam and tea flavors. Plenty of mineral and botrytis character. I love it and will take whatever bottles my friends may want to part with. A.
