Mr. Sacks notes are right on the money. This wine has tons of acid which means its going to live a long time. The acid overshadows the fruit and this wine needs food.

Once again I tried a wine due to its Cellartracker drinking window...2005-06...and was misled! This wine has not yet reached its peak drinking period. Almost straw-colored, this wine has aromas of blanched almonds, white flowers and minerals. Medium-bodied fruit in the mouth with good structure and balance. Not a wine of great depth or complexity but clean, precise fruit with excellent focus and a refreshing, underlying core of acidity.
