The third time I have had this wine and this bottle the bear. Huge autumnal nose, sois bois, hint of coffee. What is so great about this wine is the great fruit that balances the structure. Silk in the glass. Long long finish. One of my favorite wines of the year.

Zachys La Paulee "Warm-up" Dinner (Boulevard - San Francisco CA): Small glass, brief note. Bottle in great condition. Super elegant, nicely vibrant with plenty of fruit coming out of the shadows with more air. Very well textured and balanced. A pleasure to taste!

This bottle not as good as one prior at La Paulee, but still a nice drink. The nose seemed to wax and wane..it did get better with time. Nice balance with a fair amount of acid on the finish. There is still good fruit on the palate. 92 pts.

Acquerello dinner-La Paulee SF 2012: One of my favorites of the night. Big nose of soy, sous bois, spice. Lots of mid-palate depth. Lots of fruit. Loooooong finish.

A very good RSV, which belied its age. It had it all together and was terrific.
