Signs of age but gorgeously fresh still. Lemon confit, seashells, honey, limestone. Lovely mouthfeel. Oily. Slate and white flowers. Fantastically aged wine.

Tasted blind. Medium gold color. Another great aged white burg nose. Notes of ripe apricot, citrus, river stones, and tan spice. More quiet in the mouth. Lighter in acidity than the 89 LL Latour CC next to it. Grows more power and complexity with air. Still in a good drinking window, but would drink up sooner rather than later. Guessed old 80s Raveneau.
