Community Tasting Note

The Drunken Cyclist Likes this wine:

Sunday, January 9, 2022 - Retail $100. Big Ass Bottle. 100% Chardonnay. It has been another couple of years since I popped the last bottle and since the first two bottles were stellar, given the recent history of pre-mature oxidation, I naturally figured that this wine would be one of those pour-this-one-down-the-drain bottles. Except it wasn't. In fact, it was fabulous. Sure, as with the previous two bottles, the fruit was somewhat faded, but there were hints of lemon tart, vanilla bean, and a subtle, slightly toasty oak note. The palate is pretty close to gangbusters, but in that oh-so-wonderful white Burgundy way, elegant, refined, impeccably balanced. Whoa.
