Pretty classic for the most part. Nose has equal parts apple fruit (with a hint of underripe peach), chicken broth, wet limestoney sea shells, and a light toasty note. Good flavor intensity in the mouth, bone dry, vague whiff of oak, bright minerality driving the flavors. I would ideally like the acids to be higher, but we fucked up the planet so much that’s asking too much. Still very good!

Always such a good and consistent producer! Sourdough, cheese rind, preserved lemon.

A little shy when cold, but blossomed with air and temperature. Very nice.

2009-aging nicely. Chalky, stony, with some light lemony acidity. Drink it now!

Tight and unyielding at first with apple and lemon zest aromas. Mellow flavors of toasted hazelnuts, citrus and pear. Tonight's group favorite.
