Weird, almost exactly the same as the 2020 Lapierre. Marred by VA/brett something. I think had gotten warm. I just think folks are using a light hand on sulphur and in some cases that just doesn't work - I am guessing this bottle had kicked around through a couple summers (including our insane climate heat event last summer) in a little shop here in the San Juans.
 
So jealous that you are up in the San Juans now! I need to get up there next summer, this summer isn’t going to happen. That will be my first trip as a landlubber — our partnership sold the old sailiboat just before the pandemic hit.
