Friday, May 24, 2019 - Lost Friday afternoon gathering – 08 Cristal and Dom, Raveneau, Rayas, Chevillon, Gouges and etc. (Black Salt, Washington DC): Beautifully mature nose displaying sweet red fruit, a hint of sous bois, sautéed cep, sweet spices and earth. Fully integrated palate, nicely layered sweet red fruit, silky and polished, good acidity and mineral, and a long sweet red fruit driven finish with noticeable sous bois at the end. Drinking beautifully.

P.S. The CT ratings are mostly in the high 80s. I am not sure how to reconcile the difference as we all loved the bottle.
