OK, I know that a title like this on the first of the year may seem at best provocative and at worst plain stupid but bear with me.
At lunch today, a generous soul sent over an extremely large glass of 1990 d’Yquem. We divvied it up into a bunch of smaller glasses and spread it around the table.
To cut a long story short, if I taste a better wine this year I will be a very lucky man. A complete, celestial, profound tasting experience that will live long in the memory. And completely unexpected, which was half the fun.
I’ll be chasing this the way a dog chases its tail for the rest of the year. I suspect its downhill from here… ![]()
Happy New Year to all
Cheers
Peter
