Always nice, but I prefer the Dry to the Semi-Dry. Give this a little time open in the bottle. Medium plus depth. — a month ago

Took a an hour or so to develop the green bell pepper note I was looking for. Smooth and balanced. Not quite the depth an old school Loire cab franc may provide, but slightly less tannic than those and easy to enjoy. Would decant next time—suspect there is more there. — a month ago

Great standby Riesling and an excellent value at ~$16-18 - a tinge sweet and leans towards the plushier, fruitier Riesling style. Very low petrol notes, tastes like honeyed green grapes, white flowers. — 13 days ago

Great Riesling fe a single vineyard in FLX. Lots of mineral / limestone. Dry yet floral. — 14 days ago

An excellent, smooth wine with floral notes. A little less powerful than other vintages I have tried from Lynch-Bages. Cassis, blackberries, blueberries, milk chocolate, a hint of vanilla, and mushrooms. — 6 days ago

Very interesting and very different from the three previous single vineyard Forge Rieslings we tried. Floral, with a more distinct but still mellow hint of Riesling plastic poncho. A lot of white pepper and cumin, followed by a grassy finish. — 3 months ago

Very impressed with this bottle. 2017 vintage and it still explodes with flavor across your tongue and down the sides dragging a solid melon, peach, and honey the whole way to the back of your mouth. The front end is very citrusy with a little white pepper. — a month ago

9.1

Nice example from a troubled era of Ducru. No cork taint, thankfully. Started a little flat on the nose but really got going with time in the glass (had been double decanted earlier in the afternoon). Served with dry aged smoked duck breast with truffled grits, duck egg, fig, honey shimeji and braised endive. — 10 days ago
