Too early but what they hey. Has just a bit of cinnamon peaking through. Will be fun to see how this ages.

Tell me you’re from Louisiana without saying you’re from Louisiana —> Christmas Gumbo.

Not a textbook pairing, but this actually worked. Seafood gumbo for the win along with a nice Burgundy Pinot. Textbook probably would have been Gewurtztraminer or off-dry Riesling, but I picked this one. More earth than fruit. Medium body. Beautiful balance and acidity. Classic Nuits.

Merry Everything!

Really liked it a lot. Would like more to hold for a few years.
