  February 3, 2024 - Day 1 - Light green color. Nose: crisp sour apple, grapefruit, fresh cut grass, and a lot of white pepper. In the mouth, very slightly fizzy, acidity is medium++ amount with decent edge, having spiky/wooly texture. Middle is moderately rich, combining both steely and oily (but not overly so). The finish is bone-dry and peppery again. Overall, if blind, I would have guessed an Austrian Gruner Vertliner (an inexpensive but solid one) instead of Piedmont. Good value for just $15.
  
  Day 2-3 - gained softer layers of quince and camomile. A touch of anise at the end, like casual Italian wines. Overall rating does not change. 14.5% abv is well concealed by tangy spiciness.
