On the Lawn at Tanglewood this evening with the Wynton Marsalis Quintet, with very special guest performance by the Ellis Marsalis Quintet. A very exciting show, this will be the second time we've seen father (Ellis) and son (Wynton) together on these grounds.

A carbonated FLX Riesling, just perfect for today, great style, wish more producers would take this chance and do something fun like this with their wine. Please see my prior notes, still applicable.

24hr Update: Bubbles on the decline, but more of a fresh green apple-y Riesling today, not disappointed at all. 👍 — 8 years ago

On the Lawn at Tanglewood for a special night of music with the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra featuring Branford Marsalis, performing Freedom Suite by Sonny Rollins and works by John Coltrane. A nice relaxing close to a week of business travel. The Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra has performed in the Shed a prior season, led by brother Wynton. We've also seen concerts with the remainder of this talented family over the years, Delfeayo, Jason and the late/great Ellis Marsalis on a few occasions. — 5 years ago

Nose has lightly toasted brioche, recently washed lemon, lemon pith, dry limestone, pineapple core and yellow apple peel.

Palate has lime pith, squeeze of lemon juice, slight waxy notes, pulverized limestone and lingering ripe tropical fruits.

Medium finish, feeling like the concentration is coming up short, still enjoyable. 90m decant, we'll see how it evolves over the evening.

(Soured 100% from Meursault, seven separate vineyard plots.)

*R.I.P. Ellis Marsalis, "Bucky" Pizzarelli, Manu Dibango, Bill Withers, Kenny Rogers and Joseph Shabalala. It's been a tough few weeks of losses in the music business. Stay Safe out there everyone. — 6 years ago
