Saturday, August 6, 2022 - Similar to my Aug. 2020 note. This is excellent and gets better with air. This time ~1/2 a bottle spent the night in the fridge with a pourer in the neck (uncapped, ungassed) and was better the 2nd night. (A remaining glass was poured into a small, sealed glass bottle with no air space and drank beautifully the third night.) So consider a decant. And don't drink too cold.

Lemon, lemon curd, textural, there is some clear oak influence here, which can be a turnoff, but it just so beautifully done here. Pure class. Even with profile that leans ripe and with oak, there's a clean line through this and a the long finish.

    I hope your remaining bottle is a beauty.
