I do have more of it and do intend to hand on to it until it re-emerges
from its dumb phase. I also have one bottle of the '96 Clos de Bourg
Moelleux 1er Trie which I plan on opening in the twilight of my life ;-)
I don't know if you recall this, but one of my most memorable wine
experiences was drinking a bottle of the '45 Huet Le Haut Lieu Moelleux
(a gift from my wife) a couple of years ago. I need no better incentive
to let those sweeter Chenins age.
