Overnoy & Brignot Dinner (San Francisco): Wow, mind blowing nose with a complex array of roses, strawberries, violets, cherries, and a bit of VA. Nicely balanced with great acidity and lots of red fruit, alpine strawberries, citrus zest, and a slight forest note on the palate. Long finish. This was absolutely on fire and drinking perfectly right now! Clearly had the nose of the night and I initially scored it higher, but I felt that it didn't improve with air and showed best right out of the bottle. Incredibly good, though!

TN: Jura Night (Mon Ami Gabi - Chicago, IL): Big shame, but this was a complete mess. Refermented ocean-spray cranberry cocktail juice. Even with air this just was not correct.

A singular, compelling wine; a cloudy pinkish-orange hue in the glass and a fragrance that's hard to put into words, combining fresh pomegranates, grapefruits, floral and mineral notes and other more savory elements into a scent that's hard to move away from. There's a sense of lightness and delicacy on the palate, wonderful focus and precision to the flavors and remarkable presence and persistence on the palate. A real treat.

Tasting with Pierre Overnoy and Emmanuel Houillon in Kyoto (kiln in Kyoto, Japan): PNP into Radikon tasting glass (“Fruit” day): Deep spectrum of petite red fruits, herbal, floral and white pepper notes on the nose. A great nose with development.
The signature ‘soft touch’ as expected. A slight bittersweet note towards the finish.
Very good indeed and well balanced but may be lacking a little acidity? 92-93 points.
