Mostly Bubbles with Scott (Washington, D.C.): This was my contribution to the tasting, and it turned out quite nicely. Very dark gold color. The nose shows peanut shell, honey, salted nuts and dried pineapple. The palate is laced with acid and minerals, as well as wax, lanolin and nuts. The palate tastes like salted caramel and lemon zest. Interesting. There isn't much reason to age this for very long, it's more of a drink now Chablis Grand Cru, which sounds odd, but it's true. It's only five years old, but it drinks like its 10. On the second day the wine held up very nicely, still showing those rich aromas and flavors.
