Re: Is there a lead concern with neck foil?
Google is your friend! Lead capsules were phased out in the 1990's. If you have bottles from the nineties or earlier I would suggest wiping the neck and top of the bottle with a damp cloth. https://www.law.cornell.edu/cfr/text/21/189.301 https://wineguy.co.nz/index.php/glossary-articles-hidden/492-w...

I wasn't as enthralled with it. Found it a little bland and not more-ish. Seemed insipid and lacking. Where was the sea spray. Where was the Kimmeridgian lift? I prefer the Brocard Cuvee St. Claire VV for a few bucks more. YMMV

I forgot which vintage, I believe 2009 I tried a bottle a couple of years ago and it was a sugary sweet no. Consequently donated the remaining bottles to my son's school auction along with 2006 Coudelet de Beaucastel.
Don't get me wrong, the 2005 Coudelet is drinking very nicely but the 2006, Yech.
