Monday, August 26, 2019 - I loved this wine from the moment tasted it 20 years ago...I have memories of this wine's lightness and elegance, along with its exotic and floral character. Today, bottles from the case I bought back then are definitely showing me how old we are and the need to let go of that expectation from this wine. Though its still very alive and gains weight in the glass over time, it is lacking the punctuation of the power it once had. Could this be better for someone with less expectation? Yes... This is a perfect example and a reminder to drink your good wines when you find them to be good! Still excellent and still classy. DRINK
