Thursday, March 3, 2016 - Role Reversal Lunch at La Paulée-Dujac Whites (Monts-Luisants) and Lafon Reds (Quince, San Francisco): Magnum. Light yellow. More oak toast on the nose than the others, but this is still quite discrete. More deeply pitched citrus aromas. Light to medium weight but more of a sense of density than the 2010. Intensely citric flavors with rising bitter orange and significant end minerality. Not quite as supple as the 2010, but that is simply a matter of needing more time. Outstanding.

These bottles were pristine (some in larger formats) and came directly from the domain's cellars, so I could not begin to extrapolate about what the "real world" experience is with oxidation.
