To bring in the new year with my homie. A monster & needs days not hours to unfold. We had the Richjaert old vine gamay to start, which was way more approachable.

An unfortunate case of volatility, in the realm of household cleaners. Not typical for such an all-star.

Classic Cheval. Chocolate covered red fruit, forest floor, rich mushroom, mocha, Sumatra coffee. Tannin is a bit angry and angular.

Like a silky pillow, some richness that gives way to a medium to fully bodied wine. #NYWE13 #chevlblanc #stemilion
