From everyday wines, smooth and minerally. Cheaper than the white Bordeaux that I like — 3 months ago

A Pét-Nat from Huet?! Aromas of apple cider, pineapple, quince, jasmine underpinned by lightly oxidative note. Creamy mousse, but faded rather quickly in the glass. Sharp acidity. Nice tug of war between sweetness and bitterness on the finish. — 7 months ago
Sourced from the Walla Walla Rocks District, this opens with Umami and nori tones that mingle with Mandarin orange rind, and guava puree tones that all dance in the glass. The palate is plush, showing off its silky texture. Layers of bright red fruits collide with minerals, charcuterie, citrus rind accents and stony undertones on the palate. Sinfully good in its youth, this beautiful wine will cellar well over the next decade. Drink 2020-2030- 94 — 4 years ago
Best bottle I’ve had of this wine yet. Really fresh and juicy. — 6 years ago
The difference 40 years makes is maybe just a thin wooly blanket.
Pull it back and this thing's full of life - bright, vibrant, gas in the tank.
It’s brighter yellow than tired gold. Theres more fruit than decay. Sour apricots and yellow canned peaches, white popcorn and greasy bacon, and that foggy musk.
Acid rips through and does not give. Barely sweet with the demi-sec tag thats written right there but I'm not buying it.
Tonight this is 40 years old, just gettin' goin, just like me. — 3 months ago
Classic dry and crisp champagne with tiny bubbles, lemon, and cream over a touch of minerality. — 4 months ago

What an amazing grape is Chenin Blanc. We had a delicious dry version from WA earlier in the week and now this gorgeous 39 year old Vouvray from the Loire Valley in half bottle. Not really sweet enough to be called a dessert style - spatlese at best. Mid to pale gold. Toasty notes with pear and mouldy apple. On the palate incredibly fresh and vibrant for its age. Notes of pineapple and a little acid to keep it going in the cellar if desired but hard to beat right now. A great accompaniment to foie gras. One of the 1001 Wines. A wonderful experience. — 9 months ago
