Weekly tasting group #034; France: Alsace (@ MM): In the bouquet much more minerals than the 2008 together with some petrol. On the palate clearly some petrol as well, ripe apples. Clean and nicely dry. Good concentration and length.

From a 375ml. My second bottle in a couple of months and both have showed some signs of oxidation. Still enjoying nonetheless but I would recommend to start drinking, especially in this format.

WCC Blind Alsace Kaiseki Dinner (Shogun Sushi and Sake Bar, Delmar, NY): More open and complex. A hint of botrytis, but not esp sweet. Rich and complex. One of my top wines tonight.

Aromas of petrol, lychee, apple and wet stone. Well-balanced, with good depth to the fruit and a nice finish.
