2015 Pieropan Soave Classico La Rocca

In contrast to prior bottle, this was a bit past its prime. Dark yellow in glass, rich mouthfeel but noticeably flat nose. Aged citrus, toasted nuts, light honey palate, some acidity, so interesting and not over the hill, just lacking. Bottle variation, not built to age? Not enough experience with grape or this wine to judge, though prior bottle was four years ago, and Phenol73 note anticipated this turn of events.

2017 Domaine Huet Vouvray Sec Clos du Bourg

Very nice, moderate weight, crisp with lingering touch of honey. A bit more wool, lemon/lime and floral notes as wine opened, to go with light stone fruit, apple, pear. Definitely improved with air time. Did not find pronounced acid core some note, but sufficient on its own and to complement dinner of sauteed sea scallops. Enjoyable.

A bit tight on opening, decanted 30 mins. Fine richness of black cherry, plum, cherry, backing of a bit of earth layered in. But mostly it's about the fruit, the lovely balanced acidity and the fine tannin structure. Strikes a note on the palate with the combination of fruit and smack of acidity with good length and depth.
