Wines of Good Hope: Summer 2017; 7/29/2017-9/14/2017 (River's Inlet, British Columbia): Smoky and savoury nose with a lot of struck match. Saffron and a bit of botrytis. Honeysuckle and white florals. Palate is overripe tropical fruit. A very fun bottle in excellent shape, purchased from the leftovers of the Wolfgang Grunewald sale, and accordingly proper.

Ripe pineapple and apple on both the nose and front palate. Tropical fruits, soil tones and faint clove across the midpalate. Lower acid finish. Drink now. 92-

Wine Tasted at Acker Auction (Le Bernardin Prive - New York NY): Small glass, brief note. Mature apple aromas show some sweet evolution along with spice hints and earth. Comparable flavors with clear Grand Cru density and a rich, unctuous textures. Very good.
