Now & Then … A Retrospective of Two Vintages • There are wines, and then there are iconic wines. Early in my career, I became fascinated by the sweeter end of the wine spectrum. Partly because these wines possess an extraordinary ability to bring a unique sense of comfort and contentment to my soul, and partly because of their remarkable capacity to age in ways that many other wines simply do not.
