1989 vintage. Last tasted 3 years ago (9.6). Nice fill. Durand used to open. Cork 95% saturated with extensive bottle rim cleaning involved before pouring. Not decanted. Tight, minty nose throughout along with a decided, lingering zinc note under the tongue at the finish line. Tasted 2 hours after opening. Power but without delineation. Just a consistent, forgettable push. Nothing wrong with the wine...it just needed more air/time and a decant but it wasn't my call. Feel like the zinc flavor would have dissipated/blown off with more time. Good but more memorable for what it wasn't vs what it was. Pity and an entire wasting of what could have been. 11.21.25. — 5 days ago
Surprisingly bright and tropical for a Cali chard. Lighter body and slightly mineraly. Very pleasant — 9 months ago

Dry & mineral, a bit of grilled pineapple & green apple. The Finger Lakes has a well-deserved reputation for its Riesling. — 3 days ago
