Chablis Fest (Shaw's Crab House - Chicago, IL): Big and powerful with lots of flinty lemons, lime, and florals. The citrus notes had a real depth to them on the palate - needs time to become more elegant.

CT Wisconsin Offline 2; 10/5/2012-10/6/2012 (Madison, WI): Faint but appropriate gold color. Lots of clean, fresh oak on the nose, along with a nice gunpowder undertone. Similar palate. Generally an impressive wine, youthful and modern in style, but pleasantly complex, nicely proportioned, and well balanced save for a bit of heat emerging late. Drink now or hold. Probably a fair value for decent grand cru quality.

Starting to show some signs of oxidation and wasn’t close to the average. Some did blow off but it was certainly not what you would want.

Oxidized. Slight signs of old seepage under the capsule.

Burgundy and Pinot Lunch at Mischa's with Allen Meadows (Portola Valley, California): Light greenish yellow color; ethereal light citrus and lime nose; tasty, ripe lemon and vanilla palate, very young, with structure; long finish 93+ pts.
