2010 Diatom 'Hamon' #Chardonnay, Santa Rita Hills, CA. Lush, yellow apple, pineapple, peach, wet stone, round, creamy. Perhaps a little tired. Thank you #composite #cork 16% alc. #jesus #wine #sommelier #california — 10 years ago

Composite corks suck. I either notice a low level of TCA on every single one or I notice oxidation in the wine. This wine was tired likely due to the composite cork. The fruit wasn't as vibrant as it should be and note it's only a 2010. It's also kinda pricey. You'd think a $40 bottle might splurge on a nice cork or heck just put it in Stelvin.
