Dinner at Le Manoir aux Quat'Saisons with family and friends for son's 30th. Limited notes. A couple of bottles for the dessert courses. Not a touch on my recently noted 1990 but still excellent. Honey, apricots, jungle fruit and desert spices. Not at all heavy with decent acidity for balance (and cutting across richer puds!). Fully ready, but being Chenin should make 20yrs from vintage without any problem.

Smoky, mineral, melon nose with cheese rind accents. Not super profound for a 1er trie. 91-92.

Tasting at Domaine Huet and Domaine du Clos Naudin; 6/24/2014-6/26/2014 (Vouvray): This had been decanted for several hours but still seemed rather closed. Good weight and elegant wine though. 91+?
