I'm also a huge fan of the wines of Morgan Twain-Peterson's father, Joel Peterson, who makes incredibly soul satisfying Once & Future wines. Both father and son make me proud to have a California license plate that reads ZINLVR.

It is quite something how different wine making techniques can totally change the customer experience. I will see if i can get my hands on a 20 year old Clos Des Myglands as well as a 2007. zscheiner commented on your tasting note for 2005 Faiveley Mercurey 1er Cru Clos des Myglands. zscheiner wrote: "There was a significant change in winemaking style starting in 2006, changing the extraction and oak regimens at the domaine. Wines from 2006 and later are much less tannic and rustic than those from preceding vintages. So your idea of tasting '07 or '08 to experience this wine "before the fruit fades" won't work exactly as you expect... later wines started quite differently. That being said, in my experience, the old-school Faiveley rusticity mellows with sufficient age, revealing fruit beneath the tannin at 20+ years of age. So find a 90s version of this if you can. I'm holding my 2005s for at least 10 more years."
