Been drinking quite a lot of white burgundy resently and I have a better understanding of what you can expect from a certain appellation now. I have overrated this wine earlier - that's for sure. Solid bottle, but without real complexity and focus. I also pick up some of that 06 bitternes on the back end.

taste: fuller feel with medium acidity and riper tones of blood oranges, tropical citrus tones, bits of meyer lemons, and a real nasty bite of oak comes up on the end
overall: Needs some time to add depth and integrate some of the oak. There is good balance to the tones and they are a bit more forward. This is fairly accessible now and can be aged a bit

Fine Vines Fall Grand Tasting (OneSixtyBlue, Chicago IL): nose: fat and round nose of meyer lemons, blood oranges, tropical citrus tones and bits of tree fruits. There is a ripeness to the tones with good depth
