Kermit Lynch Wine Merchants, Berkeley CA.

Lemon yellow.  Born in poverty, raised in steel, where the shallow and chalky subsoil imparts a deep mineral streak.  Mandarin flavors with admirable density; oyster-shell grip underneath.  Fleur de sel and shrimp-shell reduction at the end, granular and savory.  Like the best ’09s, the acidity is ripe and round and not prissy.  Now.
