Community Tasting Note
Seth Rosenberg Likes this wine:
97 Points
Friday, January 3, 2020 - Inglorious Batards (Noreetuh restaurant, Manhattan, NY): The first of 6 from my dad's cellar. This was the best showing for this wine I've seen by far, and it was no slouch before. Classic nose of cool mint, lemon, a bit of sugar, green and bright and cut. Great on the palate and cool again - menthol, excellent cut and drive, herbal, complex. This kept getting better and better and was probably my WOTN. Nose - 6/6, Palate - 5.5/6, Finish - 5.5/6, Je ne Sais Quoi - 1.5/2 = 18.5/20.

Oh, and fruit: nectarines, peaches, and whatever gay guys like me think of as pussy (don't tell my mom I said that) -- meaning musky, ripe, and entirely suckable, lickable, edible wildlifeness. Jesus X, more of this please.
