Monday, February 25, 2013 - Another wine that I was able to enjoy for the first time for the second time (having a horrible memory has its benefits!). The attack seems neither high in acidity nor in sugar, which attests to the incredible balance because both are incredibly high, as becomes apparent a few seconds after swallowing (in the finish) and a few seconds later (i9n the mouth-puckering and watering). Nose and attack of pear and sweet citrus. Finish of sweet apple and pear that fades to a mouth-puckering recognition of the crazy amount of acidity. Very young, with a slight effervescence. Very well-balanced and enjoyed by us all who are genetically disposed to be acid-heads, but serious warnings should be attached for those with indigestion or sensitive stomachs.

This is a great wine for experimenting with the balance of sugar and acid. The attack seems very sweet and then slowly fades from sugar-dominated to mouth-puckering acid. If not for the balance, it would certainly be unbearably sweet or unbearably acidic. Very fun.
