At home. Good straw color. Clean. Tropical fruit in the nose. Also wood and a touch of alcohol. Fairly full and rich on the palate, with buttery fruit and a lasting vanillin finish. High acid, but otherwise balanced. Good, missing that special something. A bit flabby in the finish. 4-10-15-6: 85/100.

With K at home at dinner (pesto pasta). Deep, brilliant straw gold color. Lovely fruit and wood aromas. In the mouth, quite full. Alcoholic hotness is tempered by lovely, lush fruit. Though rather big and rough, this lovely fruit justifies the wine--at least for now. Very full, broad palate presence. 5-11-14-6: 86/100.
