June 3, 2009 - Mostly Rieslings (old and young) at Grand Sichuan (NYC): AP #8-77. Light gold colour in the glass, and good grief - what an insane nose! Ginger, spearmint, chocolate and white fruits - the whole thing smells like chocolate-mint cookies dusted with spices and served with a plate of fresh fruit. With air this just keeps expanding on the nose and palate, developing elements of basil and other herbs, earth and honey, and a gentle, floating mouthfeel with plenty of acidity. The fruit here still feels very young and this just kept getting better with time - hard to imagine how long this will actually last for.

March 22, 2009 - A surprise. Cork a bit friable. Golden color. This wine is still quite alive. Nice acidity and very drinkable.

May 11, 2008 - Finally opened this wine. The cork nearly disintegrated, but we saved it, though not before one-third of it fell into the bottle, intact fortunately. We decanted it through a filter as a result to get rid of the small bits of cork. A beautiful golden color...it looks like cider or apple juice. The nose has a closed cellar smell to, not musty but dusty in a good way. There's a nice tartness on the palate like a green apple, and the tartness is not overwhelming. The finish lasts 10 to 15 seconds. This is at the end of its life, but it was a very nice treat in any case.
