Poured a medium yellow-gold color (looked like a 4-5 year old Chardonnay), initially lots of SO2 that blew off in 5-10 minutes, amazing depth, minerality, cut, more than sufficient acidity to carry this 10+ more years, really pretty much a perfect bottle of Les Clos!!! — 7 years ago
The reason my mom and I started getting into wine. Sweet, but not too sweet. And within my budget when you can through at least one bottle for the night. — 9 years ago

Lovely mature soft butterscotch and mineral aromas and flavors, still has very fine acidity, great balance, wonderful length, such a fine old Chablis!!! — 6 years ago
Tawny red color. Not the nose you would expect for a Pinot. More old Italian like. Notes of tea, maraschino cherries, roses, dry earth and some wood. Nice in the mouth and grabs your attention. Lighter fruit matched against still vibrant acidity. Puckering structure. I’d like to say this needs more time but the fruit has evolved to a point where I don’t know if this will be all that better in 5 yrs. Have had better experiences with this one. Still, the quality of the wine is evident, especially with more air (5+ hrs) over the evening. — 7 years ago

Syltigt, småsträvt och kryddigt, med spännande toner av blodgrape och björnbär. Grovt tillyxat renässansvin, nästan burleskt. Gott! — 11 years ago
crisp and dry with a tart apple finish — 11 years ago
This bone-dry Michigan Riesling is a mineral-driven wine. Light golden in color, it has a nose of citrus peel and a wet driveway. The aromas aren't terribly complex, but as Spencer Tracy said, “What’s there is cherce.” On the palate there are flavors of lemon and lime with a chalky minerality. Acidity is almost racy, certainly zippy enough to handle a sandwich or salad. The finish is lengthy and reminiscent of an older vintage Riesling, quite nice. — 7 years ago

I can’t imagine how 79 year old Bordeaux could be more complete and beautiful. Lived at the winery until 2011. Amazing — 6 years ago
