Sunday, August 21, 2022 - Remember when 2009 was “too ripe”? Ha! 2009 has become a classic vintage, as climate change has made France an equatorial agricultural zone. “Solar” vintages? What a stupid term used by people whose existence contributes to climate change.

OK. I feel better now.

This has finally gotten to a place where I wish I still had more bottles. It has “Pinot-ed” to a great deal, and that’s fine. The fruit is mellow, there’s still some tannin, and it works well with food. Isn’t that what wine is supposed to do? It’s not too ripe. It’s not “solar” (who know the sun was evil and out to get us). It’s good wine.
