Terrific wines with outrageously good cassoulet as the supper club reconvenes. (Christine & Marty's.): From a half bottle and while still quite youthful, it's matured enough so that the baby fat sweetness has receded to reveal more acidity than I think many might have expected from a '97. Surprisingly open and forward considering it was not decanted, it's rather flamboyant on the nose and palate with a strong honey profile with botrytis notes. Yellow fruited with chalky mineral and while quite sweet, the acidity does its job admirably. Layered, long and thoroughly satisfying. Solid A.

Whoa, rich. The last bottle several years ago must have given me the mistaken impression that this would be closer to ready. This is a massive, rich, honeyed, layered and intense wine and I really enjoyed it for that, but even I, the guy who thinks that people way over fetishize age in wine, thinks this needs a good bit more time. I think this has the potential to be every bit as good as any Clos du Bourg 1er ever made. Really. It is just so stuffed with fruit and honey with the density of a Higgs boson. Give it at least 5, 10 would be better and save a bottle for your grandkids.

Dallas 2nd Wednesday Group - August 2012 - In Memory of David White (Suze, Dallas, Texas): WIML93

Tasted non blind. Opened and served immediately.

Gold color in the glass, clear looking throughout. Nose of graham cracker, cinnamon, cookie dough and mixed yellow fruits. Flavors of lychee, simple sugar, apricot and a hint of peach. Medium acidity, medium to full bodied. Drink or hold. Should last at least 4-5 more years.
