  Not much in the nose except for faint honeydew melon. Like the palate though. Has a subdued bitterness to begin with followed by pear, some orange peel, and some citrus. Good stuff particularly at the price range.

  In spite of being properly stored, this seems to have lost much of its freshness and zestiness over the last year; acidity is in steep decline. Still plenty of flavor, but the signature tartness is almost gone. I highly recommend drinking sooner than later, and certainly by the end of 2015.

  Better than expected and seemed to be still drinking at peak. Followed over 3 days open with little noticeable change.
  Very light straw color with average radiance.
  Grassy and tropical fruit aromas. Medium-big body. Minerality is present but not firm. Acidity balances well with the fruit and gives enough drive to cut through a nice picatta or marsala sauce. I give the palate extra marks for delivering a broad cocktail of papaya, melon, citrus, guava, etc to contemplate without resorting to simple grapefruit peel and tomcat spray. Quite enjoyable and I could see myself giving this a try in future vintages as a house regular. 4+11+17+7 = 89

  An easy drink, but kinda boring. Some pineapple, melon on the nose. That and a little citrus on the palate. A little flabby to me, although the finish is tart. Maybe it was better a year ago?

  Great wine, crisp and refreshing. I don't drink much white wine, but this was very easy to drink.
