At the Wolf restaurant in Oakland, PnP. Light gold in color with a hint of lemon zest on the nose. More citrus in the mouth with loads of cantaloupe and honeydew. Not as rich as my previous 2008 Ramonet (Mprgeot), but went nicely with my scallops.

Medium depth of richly flavored stone fruit, nice acidity with just a hint of citrus, apparent but not obtrusive wood notes, medium length finish. Very enjoyable, very youthful. One side note: not a particularly good match with lobster and drawn butter, which brought out some bitter, woody notes in the wine.

Nose has a little funk like damp wood very lean and mean on the palate. Unrelenting austere and dry. Like powered citric acid. Tough wine.

White flower, brioche, lychee, apricot. Pleasant acidity with creamy velvety texture. Lemon, peach on palate with a mineral finish.

A little more spice than fruit.
