Found it at Metro Market mixed in with the 2013. $10.50 and amazing! — 11 years ago
Deep garnet in color, with aromas of sweet berries. Quite smooth and fruit-forward with soft tannins. — 12 years ago
Perhaps the most surprising and fantastic food/wine pairing of my life: 87 Joly CdS and a Niman Ranch bacon sandwich on potato bread with a spread of Mayo as thick as my head felt this morning after a dinner with a legend. The acid in this 1987 made German Riesling seem as alkaline as lye. It shook the bacon from the inside of my cheeks and concentrated its intensity on the middle of my palate. It made the bacon more bacon. It's 28 years old. Bad A :-) — 11 years ago

Dark fruit balanced through old oak showing light spice on the nose encouraging thought to nail a specific note but is remaining a bit of an enigma in my rock rattled head after a good day enhanced by 75 MPH Harley induced wind and the brilliance of Bose and an iPhone. Ok, back to the wine, it touches, lightly grabs spreading its dark berry mini-burst in a layered earth touched tannin slow ride making magic with some of Chapel Hill's Bin 54's straight up amazing goodness (in this case very rare filet mignon, garlic tinged green beans and almond slivers; my go to steak spot in NC). Damn, this is all so right-on! Cheers! — 11 years ago
