the slightly oxidized nose on this wine, which is sourced from the k block at bien nacido vineyard and jim clendenen's own le bon climat vineyard, shows seared marshmallow, hot marcona almonds and honey, with a noticeable alkalinity. the browned-butter palate is cut by a lemon peel zing that evolves into truffle salt and roasted nuts. all elements linger deep into the finish.
