January 2013 CT Northern Virginia Off-Line "The Inaugural" (AngryPrez's home, Falls Church VA): I found this to be big and buttery, especially when tasted right after the Auxey-Duresses. I went back and tasted it again later with a cleansed palate, and still found it more buttery than I prefer, though not as pronounced as before. My palate is sensitive to (what tastes to me like) too much butter, so take with a grain of salt - not everyone in the room got a lot of butter from this wine.

Light, oaky, not great on mouthfeel, not too buttery, has some tarry overtones to it. Beautiful gold color.

This may need more time. Slightly sulfurous nose, acidic, moderate bitterness, slight butter and oak, not much fruit.
Tasted at the DC/NOVA offline
