January 15, 2011 - As reviewed before. I am not excited about this purchase. The wine is muted and has a rather hollow mid palate. Finish is simple yet with bright acidity. I will reserve the remaining bottles for Summer patio pounding.

December 27, 2010 - Very difficult to score this wine as I drank it at two different temperatures. @ the proper serving temperature of 48*, this wine was deliciously creamy with wonderful citrus aromatics. It had a great acidic finish, albeit short, but I don't think your looking for a long finish. Should be great with a spicy asian dish. Day two out of the fridge @ 35* the wine was harshly acidic up front; it lost most of its aromatics and the finish became watery. I will rate based on day one, but more reviews to follow as I have 5 more bottles.
