Montelena and 1998 whites
Dinner at Sanjusangendo in Taipei.
1998 Blanc de Lynch-Bages - this was OK. Wasn't chilled enough before it was served, so the acidity on the palate was a bit high. Nevertheless it was a good wine.
1998 Montelena Chardonnay - better than the Lynch-Bages as it was served at the right temperature. A pleasure to drink.
1996 Montelena Cabernet Sauvignon Estate - this was disappointing for me. Perhaps I had let it breathe too long. It had lost its fruity nose by the time we got to it. Faded and flat, boring to drink.
