  Note: I use the recommended scale, so 85 represents a very good wine.
  
  Did not find the strong saline and acid that some others have noted.
  Drinking well now. Do not see much improvement in the future, but also see no reason to panic.
  
  I have two left. We will see.

  Lacking aromatics and somewhat closed. Precise, mineral, saline, light melon. Not acidic but fresh and not tasting old. Expected a little more but not disappointed either.

  This has some good concentration, but basically it's boring and heavy. Lacks acidity. And it doesn't taste like Sauvignon Blanc; much more like Semillon. I would not buy it again.

  Drank this via Coravin over a couple months. Fairly consistent with previous notes. Citrus and mineral, saline and earth.
