lots of discussion about whether or not this was corked. two super sensitive tasters present = eventual acceptance. i thought the wine was unexciting but drinkable which reveals another layer of discussion about corks.

Tasted vs a 2007 AP Vin Turner's. This wine was simply gorgeous. A stunning Volnay, fully mature with all the complexity and nuance that on should expect. Berry, spice, forest floor, mint, smoke, vanilla, avocado (yep, indeed) iodine, band-aid, mouthwash, cassis. It was all over the place over a period of 2 hours. We tasted 8 wines. This was WOTN for EVERY taster. Andrew, it wasn't fair. In 2017, your Turner will be as good I'd bet.

Lots of fruit still clanging with a voluptuous profile. Earthy tones and solid bones finish. Really good.

G6 (Rick): Garnet color. Earthy raspberry nose. Bitter metallic finish. Seems slightly corked as the night drew on.

Another bottle back to more primary with a great lift and lacey presence.
