  Strange start. Took hours before this wasn't such a lean and acidic, almost Chablis like flavor. Next day was more mellow, well rounded. Nice effort and struck a good balance. Very unlike many wines from the area.

  Added some weight and honey since my last bottle a year ago. Feels like it's at the edge of a plateau leading to the downslope. Could have used some more acidity to offset the additional honeyed notes. However, it hung in there over the course of the meal though somewhat quickly lost verve as it opened up. Don't see it improving from here and I'd drink up soonish...

  Nose of almond paste, tart lemon citrus, mineral, herbal tones, & a hint of butterscotch. Palate rish w/ ripe pit fruit which turns juicy w/ brisk acidity. Finish is fresh w/ ripe apple, hints of minerality, & citrus. Finish fades slowly.

  Very forgettable bottle. Not much on the nose, even after it warmed up. Some citrus on the palate and maybe some faint white florals with a clean finish. Would have preferred a $20 Chablis.

  I think Eric Guido sums it up much better than I could. Love how crisp it is but there is just enough mouthfeel and weight to it to really take it to another level. Dan's such a stud...
