Last night, Jean was helping out with the first annual "Science Night" at Andrew's school. After it was over, we all went out for a late dinner (7:30 -- late now that Andrew goes to bed at 8) at a local restaurant. With a quick dinner of arctic char (for me), we got:
2008 Joseph Drouhin St. Veran nose: minerals, crisp appley fruit, a hint of popcorn butter palate: crisp, medium body, slightly viscous
This, along with the Beaujolais Blanc of JP Brun, is one of our few Chardonnay purchases these days. The '08 edition seems quite a bit more interesting than the '07 was (surprise!) and is a decent QPR at $15/bottle locally. Even better, it's now sealed with screwcap! Hooray!
