After day 2 Agility Competition in Malvaglia.
Absolut fantastic white wine with the same flavor and structure like the Rose from the same winery.
Also in this white wine you find the grapefruit and pampelmos taste from the start to the finale.
Absolut great wine.

Château d'Yquem

Sauternes Sémillon-Sauvignon Blanc Blend 1986

Apricot dominates. A very ripe, sweet apricot. Very nice, but I expected more honey. — 11 minutes ago

Stag's Leap Wine Cellars

Artemis Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2018

The mocha is strong with this one. So is the mint. Let's call it a York Peppermint Patty.
Listening to Tripping Daisy. Was never a fan, but they killed it last night and I got to chat up the singer. Their music would be better with Gamay.

Cristal Brut Champagne Chardonnay Pinot Noir Blend 2009

Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of an hour or so. No formal notes due to the setting. The 2009 seems to break from the reputation of the vintage with a freshness and verve that surprises. The typical quality of Cristal is there with its persistent mousse and attractive texture. Good acid too. Pretty tasty stuff and I’m not sure I would ever turn down a glass of this. Drink now through 2039. — 8 days ago

Barbaresco Nebbiolo 2020

I can sit and sniff this for 20 minutes without taking a sip. Tonight I'm pairing it with a little Chicago deep dish and the Drive By Truckers. — 5 days ago

Dom Pérignon

Brut Champagne Blend 2008

2008: a very bright young feeling champagne at 17yrs of age. A resolute acidity carries the brioche and white fruits along! I am unapologetic about my fervor for Dom. — 20 days ago
