Damn! This wine was simply badass last night. Scintillating acidity, judo-like palate weight, explosive with apple and key lime in the nose and lots of smoky CLR. This wine will only become more interesting if you hold onto it, but it's an electrifying experience today. 2013 Vintage, A Francoise.

Wow that's crisp ! It wakes up your mouth and put it on a rollercoaster. Pears and lemon on the tongue, vanilla stands out on the first nose. Worth sharing with a bunch of friends with a nice and creamy goat cheese. :)

The eye-widening spine-straightening party tricks of kick ass Chenin. Thank you @Jason Alexander for one of San Francisco's most treasure-rich wine lists.

Consistent and persistent. Oak adding a really nice softness and charm to this typically electric mineral monster. I let this sit around for a few years and still it seems like this would hold for a very very long time, nonetheless gotta say the few years added a nice integrated depth that I appreciate.
