Light gold in color, still very lively and youthful for its age, nose of lime zest and oyster liquor, intense lemon curd and limestone minerality on the palate with a tiny bit of proper oxidation starting to creep in around the edges. What an absolute stunner…wish I had more!

At the Wolf restaurant in Oakland, served to us blind from Walter. Light gold in color, with a fragrant nose that makes me think and say Chablis. However on the palate I get cantaloupe and honeydew alon with some peach apricot and citrus. A bit of acidity, but I can't detect any minerals. Knowing Walter recently returned from visiting Loire, I guess a 2010 Loire Chenin Blanc. Wrong again! I guess I just over thought it. Nice wine that wenr well with halibut appetizer,

This is in fantastic shape and just starting to get interesting. Great acidity, a tiny bit of oak, and a really elevated with grilled clams. Exactly what you want in a traditional chablis!

Perfect now. Crisp but rich, layered flavors of melon, citrus, guava. I wouldn't wait - excellent on first day but started to degrade a bit on day two.
