Dinner with Patrick Piuze (Seäsonal Restaurant & Weinbar, New York, NY): The wine of the flight and of the night, this displayed wonderful secondary aromas of wax, funky yeast, and nutmeg. A beautiful richness is enhanced by the slightest hints of oak and orange rind. Although not creamy like the 2011 Vaillons Les Minots, roasted and nutty qualities give it a similar character. There's enough in the tank for this to continue developing for a few more years, and to last for at least another decade. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
