2016 Ultramarine Blanc de Blancs Heintz Vineyard Sonoma Coast - USA, California, Sonoma County, Sonoma Coast (9/8/2022)
Order in! Had to make sure I still like these wines...duh! This has changed since last year...still has that rip roaring lemon bomb acidity...with a little tropical pineapple and grapefruit squeeze as well...but there seems to be more apple flesh in this one...more vinous than before...not at all ox...but like a young Krug with some baked apple and lees...totally exotic with almond liqueur, lychee...plush ginger/marsala creme mousse...crazy sours and crushed oyster shell saltiness on the finish...caramel apple as it warms...totally DIG this bottle...really coming together and intensifying all the senses...making you crave more...but DADGUMMIT...my last bottle! Makes me happy to keep buying all offered. (96 points)
