Friday, August 5, 2016 - From mag, with only about an hour to breathe. This is a remarkably consistent wine through the vintages (try the 1990!), and this rendition was heavenly. Ten lobsters were a perfect pairing for the richness of the chardonnay. For me it was in a perfect spot -- while lacking the exuberance of youth, it still had plenty of power. The buttery lobster meat seemed to meld with the wine. At the same time, it also expressed much more of a puligny-like minerality than I would normally notice from CC. Pale straw color. Both the oenophile and beer drinking sides of the family enjoyed this one on Cape Cod!
