Community Tasting Note

Saturday, July 13, 2013 - Treats in the cellar: Vouvray, Chablis, Bordeaux, Piedmont and Hermitage (Chelsea Wine Storage.): A beautiful bottle and showing just a bit more freshness and sweetness than a bottle three years ago. There's wonderful harmony and balance here with a classic profile of apricots, pineapples, quince paste, orange citrus and earl grey tea flavors and aromas. Granted, it's from a better vintage, but with 22 more years on it, it had retained its sugar more than a '75 demi-sec had earlier this past week. Picks up some nice minerality on the finish, but this is a fruit forward, nicely honeyed wine that, while drinking perfectly now, has much more mileage on it before it reaches any proverbial cliff. A/A-.
