This was a special bottle for me. By far the oldest Dagueneau I’ve had. Honeyed bruised yellow pear, caramel, lychee. A marzipan brioche quality reminiscent of an older Pape Clement blanc or Haut Brion blanc. Thought provoking and absorbing. I kept going back for more. Thank you for the deep pull @Matthew Beckman.

(Catching up from 6/23 - JB’s Pig Roast) what a great treat from @Matthew Beckman. Didn’t immediately recognize this as a Pur Sang based on the old label A bit of funky cabbage on the nose to start, but this was amazingly in tact for a nearly 25 year old Sauv Blanc. Wow.
