  $53 at Wente Vineyards Restaurant. Deep gold, especially for a young wine, this doesn't show especially fruity on the nose, and has a little too much vanilla-oak for my taste. The first sips are a little harsh and short, but 15 minutes in an ice bucket cool it from cellar temperature and change the palate almost completely. It becomes crisper, and the chalk and stone notes really come out, and give a fine, fine finish. Not that complex, but extremely enjoyable, and good with a range of food from squash risotto to grilled chicken breast to grilled salmon to salad. Very Good+.

  This bottle was not as enjoyable as the previous bottle last June. It had a pale gold color with very slight clouding that diminished its sparkle. The nose was top-notch (4.5/5) showing a pleasing sweetness and notes of peach, apricot and vanilla. The palate showed a good attack and a very nice mouth-filling mid palate with full body and fruit. The finish was extended but a bit bitter. (Dinner @ Bizou w/Malik)
