There are a few good things about turning 40. This buttered chanterelle, red pear beauty is one of them. Still fresh, dry and balanced after all these years... Long, intricate & complex! — 12 years ago

WIne of contrasts. Steely and lean but full-bodied at the same time. Dried apple, canned pear fruit. Mineral tension. Bitter greens, spearmint note. Good with Chanterelle risotto. — 11 years ago

Good question regarding the chanterelles. Bought them at Sunshine Market in St. Helena. Not sure where they got them. If it's the heat you're wondering about, we're enjoying a lovely, moderate week here in St. Helena
