Marcassin, Marcassin Vyd, Chardonnay, Sonoma Coast 2002

Light yellow.

Moderate intensity nose of buttered popcorn, truffle, pear, lemon, sulfide, petrol, caramel.

Extremely refined for the richness here. Understated, but with the usual uber-fat/concentration. Not sure how to describe
this, but the whole mouth is coated in caramelized pear, lemon, mineral and sulfide flavor/chew which is not aggressive.


$120. 14.3% alcohol.
