  Rubbing alcohol astringency. Very bitter. Not extremely oxidized (apple juice, maple syrup, cardboard) like other over the hill whites I’ve tried. Too much time or some contamination or maybe both.

  Waited a bit too long to open it. Still very pretty and petite, not much acid. Beautifully floral and mineral drive.

  Not much of a nose. The palate is crisp, with peach and orange rind tones, and somewhat viscous fruit.

  Earthy with strong aromas and flavors of mushroom and stone fruit. Prominent apricot on the palate with nice balanced acidity and a longer finish. Paired well with Chicken Takari and garlic rice.
