Friday, December 24, 2021 - Pop and pour. I want to say that was unfair to the wine, but given the performance, I'm not at all sure. In the glass, almost clear and colorless at the rim, shading to slightly cloudy pale gold at the core. On the nose, an initial note of lemon, which is quickly supplemented by a mix of spices (clove, nutmeg, cardamom). On the palate, a silky, almost oily texture, paired with Meyer lemon, grapefruit, green apples, the aforementioned spices, and other spice and mineral notes weaving in and out of the background, with a long finish that deposits lingering floral and spice elements on the palate, and leaves you wanting more. I don't say this lightly - the single best dry white wine I've had to date. Stunning. The 2012 was outstanding, but this is just that little bit more.
