Wine Tasted at Acker Auction (Marea - New York NY): Small glass, brief note. Bright lemon, some apple, still nicely fresh with some ripe hints but more green (not in the bad way). Good length with a still energetic finish.

Almost six years since I last tasted this, and the wine has held up very well. It has that magical colour of well-matured white Burgundy, intense but lively, a green-tinged full buttercup yellow; the nose opens up beautifully in the glass, with wonderfully fresh and complex aromas, an array of citrus fruits, flowers and green herbs, and still an attractive hint of matchstick; the palate is firmly structured, fresh and well defined, elegant and flowing, without any signs of decay or fatigue, although it has lost some of its flesh; the finish is light but displays a nice succulence and length is very good. Fully mature, but still with some time in hand.

On the hot side, good acidity, very typical to the producer profile. 92

Charleston III - the Weekend; 9/18/2014-9/20/2014 (Charleston SC - various locations incl. Red Drum, Halls, Circa 1886, and Kings Courtyard Inn): Opened prob about an hour before consumption. Lemon-lime on the nose, very green. Somehow I get goat butter in this. Not really my style of wine although I can appreciate that it is very elegantly done.
