  November 11, 2014 - Autumnal and smoky with rich, nutty aromas and flavours. Full in the mouth, quite tertiary but still lively and fresh.

  October 20, 2012 - 50th Birthday Celebration Dinner with Wine (Chez Schmidt - Chicago IL): Very similar to another bottle from the same source we had a few months ago. Very ripe and lush, lots of concentration, then somewhat simpler on finish.

  June 12, 2012 - Farewell Dinner (Charlie Trotter's, Chicago IL): Lemon peel, white floral, almond paste and some honey on the nose and palate. Nice spice and mineral component as well. Good texture. Very pretty and in much better shape than the 78 Leroy Montrachet in the next glass. Leroy's importer brought these bottles to the dinner and told us that this was declassified Montrachet.

  June 12, 2012 - Farewell to a Great Restaurant (Charlie Trotter's - Chicago IL): Mature, lush, ripe stone fruit aromas with big spice. Great charm, holding well with good acidity and energy for its age. I was told the fruit was declassified Montrachet.
