Saturday, November 14, 2009 - Initially, this wine gives me mixed feelings. The aroma is intensely evocative, like a breeze through an orange grove abounding with flowers. The palate, too, offers plenty of juicy citrus and finishes with a backdraft of that floral perfume. But the florality is almost too much... it leaves a lavender-like aftertaste which gives the feeling of something intended to be smelled rather than consumed. Perhaps the price of being interesting is that it is also a little strange. Curious to see how it develops.
