Being a CA wine history buff (and admittedly a wine necrophiliac!) I always have difficulties seeing "flaws" in weird/special wines from an era long gone.

This wine for some reason had me think of a diluted version of Ch. Talbot. Bretty. But still enjoyable if you have an open mind.....

Started off slowly, not tight but not particularly inviting, but came alive after 2-3 hours open. Was a very nice yin yang with Talbot in terms of flavor profile. — 9 years ago

This old and empty bottle I drank with friends and family members on my Birthday it's a Magnum and wasn't as well cared for as another Magnum of Chateau Talbot also a 1949 Magnum also drank on my birthday with friends who as well as me, are old farts or dead. I'm still kicking but not a clue as to why? Possibly the fine wine I/we consumed? The Talbot was considerably better and I paid less for it back in the 70's. Drank it in 1979 it & me were 30 back then. I loved it then and my guess is I'd love it today!

Smokey at the front, vanilla at the back and unremittingly interesting throughout. Unbelievably brilliant. — 10 years ago

One of the more elegant Oregon Chardonnay's I've tasted. Seamlessly integrated, the nose is subtle and delicately perfumed with aromas of d'Anjou pear, apples, brioche and marzipan. The attack is silky, richly textured and balanced. It's finely tuned and elegant, like a 1937 Talbot-Lago T150C. It has that sort of opulence and knee-weakening, stylish line. Notes of Meyer Lemon, lemon thyme and spice on a lengthy finish. — 10 years ago
