#AgedWineTuesday

Rich yellow in color with a golden hue.

Fruity on the nose and medium in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with nice complexity.

Showing ripe citrus fruits, yellow apples, light apricots, spices, light cedar, earth, herbs and white pepper.

Long finish with lemons and light spices.

This 9 year old Napa Chardonnay is drinking beautifully now. Rich and fruit forward. Juicy and entertaining. Alcohol is nicely integrated by now.

Elegant and nicely balanced. Complex, engaging and good right out of the bottle.

Drinking at its peak, and will continue to drink nicely in the next 5 years.

Good by itself as a sipping wine.

14.9% alcohol by volume.

92 points.

This was back when André Tchelistcheff was making wine for BV. In fact, it’s because of Tchelistcheff that the Georges de Latour Vineyard was bottled separately in the first place. Decanted prior to service; enjoyed over the course of several hours. This bottle of the 1970 pours a garnet color with significant rim variation; medium viscosity with light staining of the tears and signs of sediment. On the nose, the wine is developing with a mix of tart, ripe and dried mostly red fruits: red currants, lingonberries, Bing cherry, tobacco, Poblano pepper, old leather, dry gravelly earth, and warm spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium tannin (integrated) and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium+. After enjoying the 1981 vintage a couple weeks ago, this is stunning leap in quality. The 1970 is evergreen and stole my heart. Drink now through 2040. — a month ago

Fairly dry and light. A bit of acidity, low tannins. Wish it was more full bodied and complex. Finish also short. — 4 days ago

Tannins soft, fruit in check. Had a dusty finish that could have been Rutherford. But lacked the expected intensity and complexity of a reserve. — a month ago
