Autumn Dee Vine Wines Pop Up Tasting (The Morris, San Francisco): I did not write down the fuder number, but it was not the auction wine. Deep yellow/light golden color. Mellow, lower pitched nose. No botrytis. Medium weight. Only a modest level of sweetness-in fact, I would almost describe it as off dry. Fresh stone fruit, layered feel, great acidity, and a lovely lemon twist at the end. Only after I left the tasting did I notice a funny, lingering aftertaste that was probably very low level TCA, but even this slight impurity was not enough to hide the fact that this is a very great wine that is not yet completely mature.

Rather intense, ripe, floral on the nose with slightly salty notes to it. Very concentrated, sweet lemon palate, starting with a nice acidity attack, but softening then and losing focus somewhat. Moderate length. Sugary citrus rind aftertaste. Hold.
