1 person found it helpfulJan 1st, 2017Holy Shit wine. That color! This is why I fell in love with Grillet the first time I had the 1986 and 1987 vintages at the Waikiki Shell in the Summer of 1992 watching some great concert I have long since forgotten. But not the wine. Smoke, mango, lychee (really, I had a tree in my yard growing up and know what they taste like fresh from the tree).
