Tuesday, May 11, 2021 - Heidi's Gang: Back in Saddle Again (The Kenwood, Mpls, MN): Bright medium plus gold color. PNP, drank a glass plus over 2 hours plus. Tonight was real treat with a trio of Batard's: '07 Sauzet, '14 Ramonet, & '14 Pernot. All of these wines show the immense power and depth one might expect. The finely aged complexity of the richly honeyed '07 Sauzet makes it stand apart from the youngsters. Yet the brilliant energy and freshness of the 14's are undeniable. Pick your poison and die a glorious death. The Sauzet is a mature beauty showcasing what happens when these manage to go the distance. Beautiful and enticing on the nose with honey, fennel seed, tarragon, deep lemon, golden apple, butterscotch, and stone. The multilayered luxurious palate is full bodied with an oily, honeyed texture. Combed honey, shaved and lightly toasted hazelnuts, lemon oil, citrus zest, ripe apple, buttered apple tarts and great minerality on a long generous finish.
