2008 Clos Roche Blanche Gamay

[Salil Benegal]

So freaking delicious, elegant and refreshing. Everything I would expect and want from a CRB. This is from the bottling under plastic cork, still holding up though I'll be opening the rest of my bottles in the near future.

are you still working your way through these ?

Just discovered a bottle in the secondary market. First impression was that the fake cork had done its dirty deed, but the juice has made a nice comeback 30 minutes in; it's deeper, fresher, longer, hen-of-the-woodsy, and I am more awake.

Right wine, wrong closure.

Opened my last bottle in spring. It was still lovely, but I didn't want to risk holding them longer under that closure. Much that my other CRB bottles are all under real cork.
