Sunday, April 15, 2012 - An evening with Chave, SQN, Captain Kirk and others (The Greenhouse Tavern): This almost seemed a step back in our spoiled world of last night. The nose is boysenberries, camphor, violets, cocoa, and a mineral/pencil lead note. Not the texture of the prior two wines, but full bodied. Needs air/time to unwind. Very nice blueberries/black raspberry fruit. Great balance. Long finish. Not as seamless as the other wines, the oak and "gobs of fruit" need some time to integrate.
