Flight 1 - Pre whites (double blind) (2 Notes)

  • 2002 Testarossa Chardonnay Bien Nacido Vineyard 85 Points

    USA, California, Central Coast, Santa Maria Valley

    Oaky chardonnay nose. Oaky, vanilla palate, medium+ bodied with medium acidity. Not bad, just not my style. Clearly a Cali chard.

  • 2002 Kaesler Sémillon Old Vine 88 Points

    Australia, South Australia, Barossa, Barossa Valley

    Slightly oxidative, bruised apple nose with some ripe lemon. Not as oxidative on the palate, ripe lemon with medium+ acid and a great texture. I guessed ~10 y.o. Loire Chenin. Very nice.

Flight 3 - Dessert (1 Note)

  • 1983 Château Sigalas Rabaud 82 Points

    France, Bordeaux, Sauternais, Sauternes

    Metallic, copper penny, apricot nose. Metallic, dried apricot palate. Kind of shrill, a lot of the sweetness is gone. This bottle was over the hill.
