Rise Over Run

9.6

Was once again scolded by my spouse for only ever wanting white wine, no matter what we're having for dinner. Was vindicated by serving this wine with hanger steak and chimichurri, and it "worked". She swooned and deemed me heroic, so I declined to mention that I only picked it because we're out of Muscadet, which is what I was really in the mood for.

Everything is beginning to knit together in this wine, although its power outweighs its grace at this stage.

Fairly certain that I could drink this producer every day for the rest of my life. Good gravy.
