  Some BYO Wines at Noble Rot, Wellington: Brief note. Served to me double blind. I picked the wine as Mosel but thought it a lot younger. A stunning wine showing - after some initial, restrained turpentine - honeycomb, burnt caramel, crushed wet granite, nectarine, apricot and lychee. Also some attractive white florals. Drinking well now.

  This is in a really nice spot right now, showing a crisp freshness yet also nice development, with a nose of lime blossom, burnt sugar, petrol, and botrytis spice. The mix of petrol and botrytis is quite nice. Fantastic acidity balanced by residual sugar leaves only a slight sweetness. Great Riesling.

  Shut down a bit now. Lots of stuff there, but mostly lurking just below the surface. Starts out with apple, peach, and pear, and honey with just hints of brown sugar, orange, lychee, and petrol. As it warmed from the 52F cellar lime, grapefruit, and citrus rind became apparent. Fairly long finish and balanced acidity. Worthwhile but a bit too subtle and veiled and age 9. Easy 5 pt upside potential, but give this one 5 more years before checking it again. Served with pork chops seasoned with sage and nutmeg, basmati rice with garam marsala and garlic, and dal with cumin, chilis, and caramelized onions.
