Another great wine dinner with Bernard Burtschy (Taberna del Alabardero, Washington D.C.): Expressive nose displaying perfectly ripe yellow fruit, lemon curd, honey, honeysuckle, a touch of oak/vanilla, spicy spices and crushed rock. Perfectly integrated palate, nicely layered yellow citrus fruit, although ripe, cool, pure and harmonious, perfect amount of acidity, strong limestone mineral, and a long ripe but cool yellow fruit driven mineral finish. Bernard educates us that the vineyard is situated at the top. This is drinking incredibly well.

Dinner at Teochew Paradise. No notes taken. Nice bouquet, vanilla on the nose. Full with rich ripe fruits. Quite generous, but fresh and focused, not flabby. A lovely wine.

2020 New Year's Day Tasting $150-$250 Double Blind (Bin 75 Alpharetta, GA): Lots of buttered lemon, high toned limestone, bordering on grilled lemon and butterscotch, feels plenty ripe, some smoky oak and a beam of vanilla; solid but shows solar year.

Decent white Burgundy - nothing extrodinary but nice on its own or with food.
