Decanted for half hour.
Nose I got green apple, pear, honey and some lime and lime zest.
On the palate it has really nice acidity. A really soft velvety feeling coats your whole mouth. A really lovely wine and the bottle didn't make it to the next day. Really glad I have two more left.

PNP. Really nice golden straw color.
On the nose I got lemon, lemon zest, some mineral and a little tropical fruit. On the palate I thought the wine was really lite. I did get lemon, saline and minerals flavors. I also did pick up some butter some others have put in their notes. Medium tp long finish.
Although it had good acidity I don't think this will last. I have one more bottle and I will drink it this fall.

PNP. Aromas jumps out of the glass. Dark Rudy red that stained the glass.
On the nose, ripe red fruits. Some leather and I did pick up some baked bread. On the palate is a totally different story. It was nothing you picked up on the nose. Really lacking in the fruit. I also got the lemon acidic note. I could finish the bottle and end up putting the rest down the drain. A really bad wine!

Really dis-pointed with this wine after reading some of the other tasting notes. It seemed really flat. Sweet on the palate and lacking and acidity. Very one straight forward with lemon zest on the nose and nothing more. I have one more bottle and I will give it some time to see if anything develops.
