This is one of the few Bordeaux dry whites that improved with aeration and I ended up giving a higher score

Warre, Vintage other_regions_italy wild fennel flowers and saffronThis house makes rather restrained yet rich, flavorful vintage port and a very good tawny called Nimrod. Their vintage ports seem slow to develop, and while they never quite have the voluptuous richness of a Dow, Graham, or Fonseca, they have a unique mineral scented character that gives them their own complexity and style. The 1963 is very, very good and now fully mature.
