A Super Sunday (Atlanta): Better than Don's bottle from his last note in CT :) Aged white Burgundy is a thing. So hard to replicate when it's right. Slight hints of a nutty, butterscotch note, the palate is slightly oxidative (in a correct way). Fully mature, but wisps of acidity play off the rounded palate. Mineral core. Can't really ask for much more.

My last bottle of this wine, it has consistently delivered. Takes 20 minutes in the glass to really open up. Beautiful mature white with great core of minerality. Acid sticks out a little bit on the backend, more so than I recall.

Domaine Leflaive Dinner with Brice de La Morandière (Oriole - Chicago IL): Refurbished bottles directly from the Domaine. Fully mature with earthy, mushroomy, truffly character in front of lingering orchard fruit. Great with the matsutake dish.
