This is a truly excellent and soulful wine. I brought under the plane from NYC to Seattle and took to Canlis, where they immediately decanted and came by to give props on the BYO. I loved it right away. It had the nose and presence of a great white burg. Reminded me of Leroy and Roulot. And it kept evolving over two hours, ending up in more of a Raveneau place. Yes I am name dropping but I just had no idea this bottle was gonna bring it so hard. 1902 vines, 2012 vintage, a joy to have consumed and I would say no rush to open if you’re lucky enough to have.
