2005 Blain Gagnard Chassagne Montrachet

Isn't it great when your husband (he totally subscribes to "Happy wife, happy life) makes a dinner after you come home from a week of child sitting our grand daughter. He made cod with lemon butter sauce and a side dish of linguini with a fresh salad. And then he pulled out this 2005 Blain Gagnard Chassagne Montrachet to pair with the food. The wine is now more than 10 years old and it took a while to open up, but when it did, I detected notes of licorice and anise along with citrus. The wine exhibited complexity with a subtle touch of oak and a backbone of acidity.
