No notes night...Decanted 1H, no oxidation on this bottle...and of course it's the finale of our 2013 ES BB's.

Feb 21st, 2022Just concluded the annual Fall seclusion at our cabin in the Rangeley lakes region of Maine, mobile service up there is mostly non-existent, after several days I am posting again.
(Notes this year were avoided, but scores are honest.)

Oct 15th, 2021Our first official, post-COVID dinner with most of our old wine crew, plus new friends. No notes, but honest scores.
As amazing as our last bottle, if you can believe..
10H decant!

Solid. Balanced ripe fruit and mineral intensity. A bit young.

Slight citrus. Lots of minerality, almonds, vanilla, and decent acidity.

Jun 4th, 2020In one word, FRESH! A different bottle than our prior two experiences.
Nose has pineapple core, fresh pear, lanolin and wet river stone.
Palate has dried pineapple, lemon zest and (light) green apple peel on the medium finish, with zingy acidity. I hope future bottles show just like this!
The bottles of high quality producers are always a good value for character delivered at a regional level.

Some pineapple, butter and spice but closed down even after letting it breathe for four to six hours. Will get better.

Ripe citrus and just stone fruit, waxy acacia and marzipan. Not overly complex, feels a tad fat in the palate but the acid is cleansing. Average finish. So so.
