Acid for days. delicious lemon for our dungeness crab. Easily could have been base wine for ultramarine.

Remarkably focused and mineral when placed next to the '10. Completely different wines. More crumbly rocks, lime/tart citrus, crisp pomaceous notes, or orchard blossom, and sea breeze. That precision has loosened up a bit but this could go much longer. Day 1 had more reductive notes and day 2 began to shine.

This wine really caught my attention with its opulent nose and searing acidity. A cross between Meursault and German Riesling. Super fresh and complex, this 2011.
