Sunday, December 8, 2013 - Medium straw color. This is more concentrated and persistent than I remember the prior bottle being. The minerality, in particular, is a steady, pulsing sensation of stone that pervades both the nose and the palate. This retains a hint of oak and some lighter citrus fruit notes, but really it's all about the rock. This is a nice, serious counterpoint to a rich dish; we enjoyed it with Caesar Salad, where it effectively cut through the creamy dressing. It has enough acidic support to last another 5 years. For $20-25/bottle, this represents good value.
