April 17, 2020 - Wine in the time of Corona Virus - Quarantining in NYC & NH; 3/7/2020-9/1/2020 (NYC/NH): Opened our second bottle for the Friday weekly Family Zoom Happy Hour - consistent with first bottle - good but not a standout. Not a repurchase for me at this price point - '07 was much better.

April 10, 2020 - Wine in the time of Corona Virus - Quarantining in NYC & NH; 3/7/2020-9/1/2020 (NYC/NH): Fri - 4/10 Picked this up from an offer from Crush just a few days ago and popped and poured for a Zoom Happy Hour with friends. We are Condrieu fans and prefer them with a bit of age, so were looking forward to trying. Waxy texture, white florals on the nose, stone fruit but it was all a bit muted. Enjoyable but not as complex or interesting as the '07 vintage we tried the next night.

March 10, 2019 - Rhone, lots of it (Chicago, IL): It's Condrieu, and I don't think it's something that I am ever going to get. It's got some riper elements, but also something that seems like tartness that helps to cut through the waxier elements. Touch of minerality, but at the end of the day, I just want acid, and that's missing here.
