  Lime and lemon pith, with light sweetness and zippy acidity. Similar to my bottle of two months ago; but everything seems better integrated and the fruit cleaner. Drink now.

  My second bottle of this and it seems less interesting than I remember, with an interplay of faint sweeetness, racy acid, and lime pith with a hint of cardboard in the background (not corked; it's bottled under screwcap). The whole equals less than the sum of the parts. Slightly spritzy, which is something I remember from the previous bottle.
  
  On day two the carboard note disappeared, but otherwise the wine seemed relatively unchanged.

  Pale yellow color. Aromas of Granny Smith Apple and lemon citrus. The sip comes into the mouth with an upfront light sweetness and refreshing acidity that balance each other. But missing is richness, any additional complexity, or layers of flavors. While enjoyable and drinkable, too simple, linear, and not involving.

  Subdued and uninteresting on Day 1. Day 2 showed more pear, lemon and light fruit. Very refreshing and food friendly. 90+

  Apple, pear and light floral on both the nose and palate. An effervescent acidity that cleansed the palate when paired with our Thanksgiving turkey. Medium finish. The bottle seemed a bit subdued at first, but opened with time in the glass. Very easy to drink and food friendly. 90+
