Saturday, July 14, 2012 - Not as satisfying as year's past, this nonetheless did manage to justify the $17 price-tag. 62% Sauv Blanc, 38% Semillon. Beeswax, citric zest, river rocks, African spice and dried herbs. The palate seems to be missing some of the tension I've come to enjoy with this bottling; the fruit, too, seemed to be missing some of its freshness. I will reserve judgment until after my next bottle. It worked OK with a traditional Jambalaya dish, but would have taken a backseat to the ideal beer in a heartbeat. Still, some past vintages have been quite enjoyable, more so when the reasonable price is considered. 12,5% abv, drink thru 2014
