October 8, 2018 - Definitely still alive but this is getting to middle age. Quite round and elegant almost meursault like. My first taste of white burg from the acclaimed 73 vintage. expected more but then again it is a 45 year old white...wish i had this 10 years ago

September 3, 2011 - Dinner at RN74; 2 of 3 bottles turned out spectacular, the other was corked. Energy, shells, and minerals on the nose; lemon and almond oil. Taste is amazing; fresh and clean with fruit + acid to last many more years. Hard to believe this wine is 38 years old. Depth, balance, and length is mind-blowing.
