While showing some signs of volatility and oxidization, this bottle was FAR better than the one. Medium straw color. Pleaseant nose of white flowers, pears, peaches, and butter. Medium-bodied and slightly stoney with good acidity, this bottle is earthy and pretty bright. 50+4+12+17+7=90

Oxidized again. The good ones are few and far between.

Mostly muted, slightly mineral nose. Wine was flabby and tired. Are the 99s dying like the 96s?

Alcoholic nose (nail polish remover?), but unpleasant smells blew off quickly. Nice acidity and citrus - could use some time in the bottle.
