2005 Drouhin – Chardonnay -Pouilly Fuisse, (Burgundy) France
It’s lean and crisp but it has nice weight on the tongue. This displays nice allspice nuances. Because there’s less sun in Europe than California, Pouilly Fuisse has enough acidity to create a long finish. The region of Cote de Beaune, Burgundy (Fr.) only grows chardonnay. Beneath the soil, the vines are enriched with the remains of animals that were driven off the cliff by Stone Age hunters. Last tasted 2007 Drink now-2010

Wine and Waves
I'm lucky to be a 31-year-old surf punk that gets to sample rare wines like the 1922 Pol Roger, the 1959 Petrus and the 2001 D.R.C. Richebourg--that doesn't mean those wines are always good, or worth the price. Since I've worked as a sommelier (in Monterey, CA) for high-end restaurants like Casanova, the Sardine Factory, and Marinus, I've honed my palate and I can choose a good bottle that won't break the bank. When I have enough time and money, I like to travel with my girl Lindsay Jackson to places with great wine and waves. I'm a certified sommelier (Court of Master Sommeliers) and am available to drink wine. Call: 831-521-8606 or e-mail: pwetterau@gmail.com
