So that was amazing. Deep golden color, beautifully balanced, off-dry with classic honeyed Chenin notes. Couldn't really ask for anything more.

What a Prince. Lots of history with this wine, but few bottles left. Great when it is on, but plenty of underachievers. This one will do.

Roasted tropical fruit, wool, and an epic chalk finish. I can still taste it.

😢 corked. @Mike Garrison shared some of this wonderful vintage with me years ago. I was holding on to this to open with him some day, but shelter in place has done a number on my wine collection, so I popped it. Still very much alive, for those unopened (TCA-free) bottles left out there...

Honeyed sweet nose, and what an amazing flavor. Unctuous and thick. Amazing wine. 1990 vintage. Wish I could have more. I bought this bottle 15-20 years ago :)
