Wine gift

In our house we don't get many chances to drink old good wine. And to be honest we didn't expect much from this bottle of a 1997 Chablis. It was a gift from a friend who, now in her mid-eighties, has decided she really doesn't need any longer to keep the wine she's been hoarding for a quarter-century. So she gave me and another friend each twenty bottles. Very nice.

This was the first bottle we opened. We sat in the sun before supper this evening and finished it off in short order. It was delicious.
