  A Night in London (Planet of the Grapes; The Hide): -- tasted a couple glasses non-blind over 30 – 40 minutes --
  
  I thought this was quite tasty, although not very complex. Certainly on the riper end of the white Burg. Spectrum – I wish it had the additional minerality I’ve come to expect of Chardonnay from this part of the world, but it did not. Rather, this came across as a very solid ripe-but-not-overdone Chardonnay. Medium-full bodied on the palate. Given the wine-bar pricing on this bottle, I suspect this offers incredible value at retail. My wife enjoyed this more than I did, as it was one of the more memorable wines of the evening for her.
  
  B: 50, 5, 11, 15, 7 = 88
