  • Immediately nose of canned peaches with a hint of pineapple, apricots, and rose water. Taste was the same as the bouquet with adding minerality, walnuts, vanilla, and toasted oak. As it evolved the strong canned peaches smell and taste drifted into the minerality (crushed limestone?). The fruity flavors are a little more delicate now with apricot taking over for the canned peaches. A hint of blood orange now and just a hint of lemon zest. Toastiness is still there but almost no oak.
    Is fruit forward for a White Burgundy, but still very enjoyable. Had it with a simple dinner of butternut squash, rice, and sauteed vegetables and pork.

  • Tasting on day two; a point or two off of last night, but still lovely. At peak, this is awesome white burg -- vanilla, stones, quince, and canned peaches. If peaches were canned in the happy tears of angels. The walnut note that silton called out is spot-on and delicious -- not heavy or oxidized whatsoever. Great balance. Long light finish. SRP at $85 is a little rich, but very happy having paid ~half of that.

  • on a root day; pop-n-pour; no past seepage; pale yellow; racy vanilla and citrus based bouquet; subtle minerality, nuts and butter; toasty oak overshadow the palate;good structure and depth in its' context; although too much oak for me but it's an enjoyable wine; good effort!

  • Blind Night (Jock): Pale yellow color. Aromas of apple and petrol. Tastes of apple with some toasted oak and nice minerality. Well balanced. Rich elegant finish with nice depth of fruit. My guess was white Burgundy. Scott's 1st wine. 13.5% alcohol.
