This is a library release of the 1955 vintage. And it is incredible.

A very good cheese, in this case a Bleu d'Auvergne, was a superb combination to this fantastic Loire wine. Lovely aromas of honey, saffron, bitter almond. We loved it!

Sweet but tart and deep with age. Let's see how this pairs with the dessert. But quite fine.

1975 vintage. Indescribably good, not your usual clawy sweet wine. Amazing complexity. Some of the party thought it was good with blue cheese, but I thought that was too overpowering.
