The cork issues not withstanding (the restaurant needs to enbrace the use of the ah so for older bottles), the wine was fantastic. Incredible honeyed lemon on the nose, a rich, full bodied palate with layers of lemon, butter, vanilla, and candied lemon rind. Lingering finish. 16 years and still going strong...
