    May 15, 2020 - Drunk at Buenos Aires Polo Club Hong Kong - Incredibly open and giving right from the beginning. A great combination of bright fruit, alcohol and acid. The sommelier aptly described the palate as warm. As the evening progressed the wine held up incredibly well, in particular developing further its attractive sweetness. Ponsot really was brilliant in the '80s.

    March 7, 2020 - Unfortunately this was opened right at the end of a long night so mo formal notes. We do recall there being some strawberry and floral notes. Would love to try again properly. From MrChew.
