2006 Chacra
Lunch at Mono.
Charles Dufour Bulles de Comptoir #8 Stilllebenm, dégorgée mars 2020 - interesting nose with honey, apricot, flint... pretty toasty and lean. More intense on the palate.
2006 Chacra Pinot Noir Treinta y Dos - some black prunes, smoky, leather notes. More mellow and elegant now, but lost a lot of the fresh and intense fruit it possessed when young.
Full post on lunch is here.

2017 Meroi Chardonnay
Drinking at home.
2017 Meroi Colli Orientali del Friuli Chardonnay - very buttery and caramelized nose, with marmalade, lemon, and a hint of toast. Palate was a little on the ripe side.
