Monday, January 16, 2017 - Two friends sharing three bottles of wine (Da Domenico Ristorante, Mclean, VA): Intense ripe yellow fruit driven nose, RJ mentions guava, peach, lemon curd, sesame, butter scotch, oyster shell, a hint of lanoline and flowers. Excellent concentration, dense ripe yellow fruit driven palate impression, quite rich yet precise palate, perfect amount of acidity, strong presence of mineral and a lovely long finish. This is a perfectly mature Batard, ie dense and masculine. Excellent showing.
