I decided that lunch with family at a terrific restaurant was a fitting setting for my last bottle of 1997 Pinon Vouvray Cuvée Tradition, a wine that has seen so many family celebrations through the years, and it again performed admirably. This bottle is probably a little past peak, showing a little oxidation, but Chenin handles a little oxidation pretty well as the honeyed stone fruit and minerals seem to absorb it. With the sec tendre sweetness and still lively acidity, it is made for food, and paired brilliantly with a range of inventive and delicious dishes focused on seafood and vegetables, though it worked with a raw beef dish just as well. The wine may be gone, but the memories of it will last for a long time. — 9 years ago

Over 100 years old so I give it a ten for uniqueness. Probably a 9.2 for taste. — 10 years ago

Very champagne notes of toast, creme brulee and ripe apples. A little less dry than champagne, with great chenin body. Very nice champagne alternative at an excellent price from Chambers Street. — 11 years ago

Thanks for the great bottle dad! Friday night uncorked at Quattro was excellent as usual, and this Bruno Michel had stellar precision from 70% 45 year old Chardonnay vines and truffle-like complexity from the 30% 75 year old Meunier vines. This had it all; a lovely expressive nose of brioche and white fruit, a creamy texture and an endless chalky finish. The foie gras with the white truffle cocaine brought even more energy to this electric bottle. I love the sulphur capsule! — 11 years ago

Richly textured, lots of "orange" (peel, flesh, confit, grilled, marmalade, etc). Good acidity to balance out. — 10 years ago

Terrific crisp, earthy white. Crisp pears and loads of bright earthy seashells on nose. Bone dry lemony, straw inflected flavors. Mouthwatering acids. Like this a whole lot. — 11 years ago

An awesome late-picked Riesling from one of the 20th century's greatest German harvests - 1976.
Also, sourced from one of the Rheingau's finest old estates, J.B. Becker, which has a long-standing reputation for great Rieslings that age indefinitely and this half bottle proves that. — 10 years ago
