Krug Grande Cuvée, 165éme édition, ID 416039 - very big and toasty nose. Acidity was a little higher than expected. Such a beautiful wine.
2010 Chapoutier Ermitage Le Méal Blanc - very big toasty nose, which was lovely. Really, really ripe on the palate, actually a little over-ripe, and ended up being a little bitter.
1975 Robert Weil Kiedricher Gräfenberg Riesling Auslese - beautiful and sweet on the nose, with honey, preserved lemon, and dried tangerine peel. Not too sweet on the palate.
2010 Chapoutier Ermitage L'Ermite - decanted 1½ hours prior to serving. First whiff was almost Bordeaux-like, with smoke but not much fruit. Showed eucalyptus and a hint of black pepper, and was still a little sharp on the nose in terms of alcohol.
1934 Henriques and Henriques Malmsey - THIS was an incredible treat. Showing Asian pear like Korean or Japanese nashi with the mineral notes, and interesting, exotic spices, really ripe prunes, and even a little savory notes.
