What is meant by "Draper perfume"?

Michael,
Any sense of the technical specs on the deacidification? How high were the acids, and what did they target when they brought them down, do you know?

A little thread drift....I have tasted some very quaffable young zin's out here this week. 5 or so years ago I never ever thought quaffable and zin would be in the same sentence.
2009 Unti, and 2010 Dashe. Both dry creek valley, are lovely to drink right now.

Have you tried Broc or Hobo?

Both dope and at ~13.5%, both are more savory than most zinfandel these days.

Wish I did. I truly have no idea.

I have but not on this trip. Did taste through the wind gap and ryme line up yesterday. Very impressive . But I'll start a new thread for that.
 
I just turned in my order on the Ridge Geyserville 2011. The reports I've seen are favorable but this thread does introduce an element of doubt.
