Wines tasted at Bonham's auction in Hong Kong.

2010 Guigal La Doriane - floral, lovely, aromatic, so typical of Viognier.  Nose was killed by the intense air freshener inside the Shangri-La Hotel.  Slightly flat on the palate, and a little bitter on the finish.

1978 Ardbeg - peaty, caramel and very floral.  Very nice.

1986 Cheval Blanc - ripe fruit, sweet, smoky, soy sauce, tea and cedar notes.  Smooth and velvety, and very lovely.
