Community Tasting Note

Friday, February 5, 2021 - Oldest CB I've had...brilliant golden metallic, green tinge color...engaging nose which instantly reminded me of DomP...yellow apple, smoky lees, chalky limestone, dried honey, caramel apples, griddled pancakes. Not an explosion upon popping the cork...mellow and graceful bubbles, yet the old dude can still light up the dance floor with a vibrant and refreshing tingle...lemon sours, green apple skin tartness with plenty of verve. Wonderful richness of orchard fruits...aged nuances of truffle butter, white honey...saline with chalky minerals...smoky match strike lees ala a fine Meursault...pretty florals of white flowers and apricot blossoms. Such class and brightness...in a perfect place right now...and an absolute PLEASURE to drink!
