Ramonet Montrachet Lunch (Phoenix, AZ USA): Massive aromas, dark-ish color, exciting and thrilling on the aromas alone. Rich mouthfeel with more viscosity than the two other Ramonet Montrachet wines in the flight. Some oak spice on the finish. All in all, a lovely wine.
Not one person guessed this vintage correctly, most including myself were thinking 09. Blind tasting is humbling indeed...

Broad, powerful, round, and ripe accompanied by dried tropical extract, pineapple, vanilla and signature spearmint. Underwhelming for a Ramonet Montrachet but overall a good wine without looking at the price tag. I am not sure if this is better than a 2010 Ramonet Batard Montrachet.

drank in a trilogy with 10 and 12, this was absolutely fantastic though slightly behind the other two. I love 11 whites as a vintage, they are so chisled and that leanness appeals to me, though the other two wines were providing another dimension

Acker Merrall Bicentennial Gala (Cipriani Wall Street - New York NY): Small glass from magnum, brief note. Apple and lemon curd with enticing floral charm throughout with bright textures supporting this to a long, exciting, expanding finish. It is a crazy night when this is the 4th best Montrachet I tasted.

Slow oxed for 5.5 hours. Nose has the signature spearmint, straw, lemon zest, oak. Palate opens up beautifull with very nice intensity with very refined stuffing. The finish is very elegant. This is more accessible than my expectation. Drinking well already.
