Drinking very well -- maybe near the end of the window, as noted on the Tablas Creek wine chart -- sense of melon with full mouth feel, weak acid, nicely pairs with food

Fairly shy at first, this took a while to wake up in the decanter. Even then - on it's own - it remained quiet and a little soft with melon, citrus and tropical fruits. Paired with Moroccan spiced halibut, however, this was the perfect thing. That softness allowed it to spread out a bit and support the food, becoming rounder and fuller as the two played off each other. Tasty.

Golden yellow on the eye. Maybe a bit of citrus on the nose;I like, but cannot attach words or images to what is going on with the aroma or the palate in the larger sense. Pleasant mouthfeel and finish, though.

Full mouth, subtle cantaloupe and spent tea leaf. A bit flabby, perhaps drunk too chilled.
