  another 89+, really. This was open for 4-5 days and it never gave in. If anything, it just kept getting better. Wonderful food wine, with fruit reminiscent of a SB, but better. Good acidity.

  Wine Crawl 12: Verdejo, Verdelho and California Pinot Noir (San Francisco): Quite aromatic, with floral aromas, green apple and tropical fruits, and a whiff of something like freshly-churned butter. Medium(-) acidity, with a lush, oily mouthfeel and perhaps a little residual sugar. With time in the glass the nose picks up a beer-y, fermentative note. I found this somewhat flabby and in need of more definition or structure on the palate; moreover, this bottle seemed to be past its prime. My 3/3, group's 3/3; tasted blind.

  Light yellow colour; nose of artichoke/asparagus boil; lanolin causing my mouth to water. Dry, almost tart, a tad out of balance, grainy with a little heat at end. Not especially pleased with the hot finish, burning at the end. Tart, bitter finish.

  Grapefruit peel dominated nose, with additional lemongrass, green herbs on the palate. Nice oily mouthfeel, and good length. Initially awkward, this benefited greatly from air. Update - thus held up very well in the fridge. The last glass 3 nights later was the best of all, rich and citrus-melony, not at all nutty or oxidized. I found serving temperature to be important; i enjoyed this most somewhere just below cellar temperature.

  I love this wine. Lots of grassy, grapefruit, and smoke character for a reasonable price.
