  October 1, 2020 - The fruit flesh has finally been released from the Kraken! 5yrs ago this sucker was INTENSE! Needed a day decant to enjoy anything other than the intense lemon sour pucker of acidity. Absolute BOSS tonight! Lot 10, dg 3/14 with a 2010 base...still an attention getting freshness of lemon, grapefruit, and gingery acidity...yet not face melting...cleanses the palate, and shows more flesh of apricot, green apple, peach skin. Wonderful subtle aged nuances of honey butter, lees, vanilla bean, candied nuts...crisp and CUT...Puligny-like laser focus...crushed rocks and chalky minerality...mouth coating marsala creme mousse...finishes floral, persistent, and a slap to the face(the good kind) from that acid making it known who is still the Boss! Love this!!!!
