Ganevat Dinner (San Francisco): Very pretty nose with notes of red fruit, black pepper, earth, a hint of leather, and maybe a bit of brett. Good acidity with more red berries and cherries on the palate and a bit more primary than the palate overall. Nice finish. This was really lovely and complex, a nice contrast from the more pure fruit flavors of the other reds. I enjoyed this slight rusticity and would ideally give this another 5 years or so in the cellar. 93-94+

Jura study (Chicago, IL): A very small reductive note on the nose. Red fruit, pure, simple and clean. Far less herbal than the 2011, this primarily shows that light Jura red fruit. I might have been in the minority in preferring this to the older version. Very lightweight, but with a nice silkiness to the texture.

Sushi and Champagne (Sushi Yuki): Blinded. Open an hour earlier. Med ruby with pronounced aromas. Funky initially but blew off, notes of strawberry, raspberry. High acid with light body ending with a long finish.

Caroline's birthday at Sushi Yuki: My contribution as I wanted to do a Puffeney red and white side by side. Was worried about this as it was thin and acidic on opening but with air it developed the magical lifted nose as I experienced with the Poulsard. On the palate this wasn’t quite as deep as the Poulsard but it showed some vibrant raspberry fruit. Lovely balanced wine from a cooler vintage albeit a little short on the finish.
