fatty fish

The 2003s appear to be somewhat in the style of the 1990s

Gruenchers is not in the model of a typical Chambolle as it's rarely delicate and lacy yet there is a generosity and depth to fine examples that make them most attractive

Dark ruby-colored with purple hues

very pure blackberry and boysenberry notes interlaced with cedar

Rieussec - 2001 (750ml) France fatty fishA monumental effort, the 2001 Rieussec boasts a light to medium gold color in addition to a fabulous perfume of honeysuckle, smoky oak, caramelized tropical fruits, creme brulee, and Grand Marnier. The wine is massive and full bodied yet neither over the top nor heavy because of good acidity. With intense botrytis as well as a 70 75 second finish, this amazing Sauternes will be its apogee between 2010 2035. Robert Parker 99 points
