Monday, September 10, 2012 - Surprisingly restrain for the vintage, a classic Raveneau profile of saline, limestone, lemon oil, white flowers and beeswax. Oily yet precise palate, lots of mineral and bright acidity. There is a bit of wet sox/possible TCA that prevents the wine from being perfectly pure. Very precise and fresh. I brought another bottle to a friendly gathering a couple days later and the TCA like note showed once again. Perhaps a bad batch? Still this bottle is quite enjoyable where the other bottle was lean and too dirty.
