Blind White Wine Nailed by Anthony Mueller, off by 1year on Calling Vintage! — 12 years ago
This bottle of wine was given to my son Tom Jr from my brother in law Brian Donovan. Brian gave Tommy the wine as a gift to commemorate the announcement of his wife Jenna being pregnant with my first Grandchild. Tom and Jenna have chosen tonight 02/25/2013, to open this memorable bottle. We will be forever grateful to Brian for this incredible wine experience. — 12 years ago
Great purity, just a bit taut right now. Should resolve nicely. There are some deep, leafy, earthy aromatics. Oak is judged well. This has nice freshness to it. Definitely on the rustic side. Jenna thinks it's "dirty and dusty like licking the floor of a primitive structure." It is very hot to her as well, both nasally and to drink. The wine Polaner calls blood orange on this bottling and Camus' other VV Savigny bottling. He is completely right we both agree. 85 year old vines. A solid value for the cellar. Jenna says the quality of this is like unfiltered Honest Tea to clean and bright Steaz. This is a touch more muddled at the moment with a bit of bitterness but I am confident this will clarify and integrate nicely with time. Old school for purists. Jenna says it's "minty and herbal, fennel or anise." Definitely anise/fennel. Some balsamicky older barrel aromas and also nuttier newer oak aromas, too. Good balance. This really does have some soil aromas to it. A touch hot (alcohol) right but I imagine it will cool down with some time in bottle. — 11 years ago
