Rich and complex nose showing lemon lime,grapefruit,pear,white flowers,acacia honey,crushed stone and smoke.The palate is mouth coating, elegant,very smooth and refined,oily and fat,with refreshing acidty and a long bright finish with chalky and salty minerals.Excellent and clearly not at its peak.

Fairly classic in terms of concentration and C-C character, if a tad sharp around the edges which I think is simply the nature of the vintage. At peak.

Seventeenth Annual White Truffle Dinner (Hughes House - Chicago IL): In 12/08/07 vertical. Slightly reduced to start. Rich and ripe with broad cross-section of stone and orchard fruit. Wonderfully dense and concentrated, this gradually emerged from its rich shell to slowly show its depth and potential. Not quite yet at its peak.

Rousseau Clos St Jacques and Corton-Charlemagne Dinner (Sepia - Chicago IL): Rich and nearly tropical with a hint of assertive structure, so lots of great things going on even if this didn't seem perfectly harmonious tonight.
