The nose has tropical flavors and butterscotch which suggests new world. The palate is quite line, taut and has significant minerality This just didn't seem to come together in my opinon.

Day 1: Sampled at Hennepin Lake earlier in the day and bought at 1010 Washington Wine & Spirits for much less. $14.99 on sale. This is really nice with saline, shells, orange peel and chalk. Short to medium finish. Picks up some nice Carmel elements on the finish. Very complex for a wine under $20.00! 91 points Day 2: Honey, Carmel, saline, shells and orange peel. Very complex wine for $15. Medium finish and good acidity. Highly Recommended. 91 points Day 3: Not as good as day 1 and 2 and lost some of the intensity. Drink on a pop and pour and enjoy. Recommendation: This is a short term ager. Drinking well now so why wait. Drink now to 2021.

Saline nose - smells really clean and refreshing Very fresh on the palate, intense lemony fruit, not shortage of acidity here Feels so concentrated. One for the chablis lover - bet this would sing with a plate of oysters

Ripe fruit on the nose. Crisp on the palate.
