1/13/2024 - MC2 Wines Likes this wine:
Timuquana BYO (TCC): Fruit and lightness and spices. This is drinking well. Very nice and easy and a good change of pace from some of the bigger wines we had this night. It’s more one-dimensional in style and missing that next level of depth from some of the best ones.

Celebrating a birthday (Seasons 52): Out of a magnum. This was fresh and herbal and lower fruit and more in the woodsy style. Drinking pretty well. Nice pairing with more structured seafood (e.g. shrimp and grits).

Still lots of plentiful fruit.

Cork broke as I was opening the bottle which tells me it was time to uncork this bottle. We drank it with a 2009 Volnay-Santenots, and to me it was interesting to taste the constancy of this particular wine, 20 years apart: tastes change, the wine remains the same.
