[tn] Old Burgs never die ...
Comte de Chartogne 1978 Bourgogne Blanc, Jaboulet Vercherre
[c] Dangerously close to amber [n] A slight sheery note immediately after opening, which disappears. Then, walnuts and honey [p] Attack of sweetness which is all about maturity, Quite strong acidity. More walnuts, old winter apples, good persistance. The wine does not die in the glass; the last we drink a good two hours after opening and decanting the wine. Overall impression: This may be the last fling before the winter, in case you have any bottles, I think you should drink them now We have (auction) two more bottles and they will not live to see the summer. The acidity is to me suspicious - acidification? Disclaimer: I disassociate myself completely from the political views of the producer, while maintaining his inalienable rights to express same. Sorry about that. I shouldn´t bring politics into the group but the francophones present may know about the adherence of Jaboulet Vercherre.
