This is still a work in progress as I upload tasting notes and wine labels from as far as 1999... Check back once in a while to get the updates.

Labet and Giraud

Dinner at Caprice.

Henri Giraud Blanc de Craie - a nice blanc de blancs with good acidity, with some ripeness on the palate so that it wasn't completely lean. The nose was very toasty, flinty, mineral, and rather fragrant and almost floral. So nice.

2021 Labet Savagnin En Chalasse - there was a huge nose of toast, which also showed up on the palate so I felt like I was chewing on a piece of plywood... The nose was pretty reductive, mineral, and savory. So intense, but really nice.

Full post on dinner is here.
