Different drinker, different bottle, different tasting note:

What bottle of wine did you open today? (Part 2)

To start with gougères: [20230326_111032] [20230326_111039] I paid 19 euros a bottle for this at auction… good deal. Strawberries, citrus lots of minerality, very fresh and enjoyable. Lacking a little on the finish but lovely. With a smorgasbord of stuff… [20230326_120627] [20230326_120636] 2106… couldn’t be more different! The franc de pieds is awesome! Crunchy cranberries and groseilles, so much freshness and beautiful acidity. At this point, it’s all fruit with a touch of fine tanins…
