Buff Tannen, USXFel Presidente Likes this wine: 91 points
April 16, 2020 - A little more herbaceous and less concentrated than sauterne or eiswein: is that so wrong?
Sweet potatoes & butterscotch and some fruits I forget
Some Boston restaurants are Corona-clearing their cellars. I think $40's a fair price for this, yeah? -

December 15, 2018 - Nice example of a mature Vouvray; could have used a bit more complexity to really propel it to the next level, but as it is there's a pleasant decaying peach / stone fruit quality typical to Vouvray with a little honey and mineral to balance. Would never pass up a sweet Huet of the same age for this, but this is nice.
