1996 d'Arenberg Riesling the Noble
1996 d'Arenberg Riesling the Noble - same as it ever was when first opened. Orange rind, glycerin, a bit of honeydew, very very sweet on the palate. At the same time it was sharp on the palate.

1993 Dugat-Py Cœur de Roy
1993 Dugat-Py Gevrey-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes Cœur de Roy - pretty bad when first opened. Very acidic, nothing good in the nose. Got a bit better with time. More fruit and mushrooms, black olives, more Pinot-like. After 2½ hours sweet honeydew emerged from the nose. Pretty nice, but acidity was high throughout, and tannic. Pretty disappointed with this.

1992 Sarget de Gruaud-Larose
1992 Sarget de Gruaud-Larose - still as good as it was the last time. After airing the nose was very sweet, big nose of honeydew. Very smooth on the palate. Perfect for drinking right now.
