1988 Clinet - decanted about 2 hours before drinking. Ripe and sweet nose with smoke and minerals. A little alcoholic.
1992 Beringer Nightingale - I've been saving this for a few years and finally got around to trying it. Nose of plastic, botrytis, honey, orange blossom, nutty and a little sharp. Very sweet on the palate, the way I like my sweet wines.
Duval-Leroy Brut "Design Paris" - pretty classic in terms of is yeasty nose and acidity. The silkscreen bottle was designed by American painter LeRoy Neiman and is meant to evoke the City of Lights.
2008 Cloudy Bay Sauvignon Blanc - always a crowd favorite, with its classic nose of pipi de chat, minerals, flint and muscat.
