Muted nose, but excellent mature tastes on the palate. Butterscotch, almond skins, and spicy baked pears. A bit low in acidiy, but not to the point where it makes it undrinkable. Very long finish. A very nice mature wine, but I do not think it will last much longer.

Nice mature aromas and tastes. A slight liquor taste? Long lingering finish. A slight lack of acidity is noticed, but it does not detract from the wine much. Complexities that could only come from age. Very nice. On the third day, the wine developed a very intense mineral streak to it and the acids seemed a little more focused. Maybe this wine can age a bit more?

Tasting of 6 White Burgundy at Primas. Was the first wine pored and tasted for the evening and set the tone for the evening with a steely, intense nose and beautiful steely taste of great fruit, extremely well balanced and finished with long lasting flavors, should age the best of the group. My #3 and Group #1.

Dinner w/ Penny @ The Place (NYC): Screeching acidity. Needed more air. Lots of minerals and stones with a hint of butterscotch. Very hard wine.
