  Winebar [4 Whites, 8 Reds, & 3 *shared* bottles] from 07/13/18 (Vintage Wines Ltd., San Diego, CA): Typically, grapes grown in clay and limestone, bathonian type (Jurassic Era) soils on SE oriented hills; "The 11 mo fermentation starts naturally in new & 1 yr old, lightly toasted oak barrels from French Allier forests."
  
  N: Spicy vanilla with notes of butter & undertones of lemons? Intensity lurking?
  
  P: Med, poss LM, body; NICE frt atop oak met by BRACING acidity which transitions into a LONG, balanced, tangy/swt finish which ULT shows a SLIGHT bitterness which encourages food &/or another sip. Still on the upswing, & would likely benefit by cellaring into Spring '19, then drinking through '22? My VG+, EXC- (or higher?)... soon. [I was unable to find another source with which to compare this vendor's $36.95.]
