Bought 2 1-liter bottles from Wine Library for 10/b several months ago; this is #2. Light green/gold; semi-fragrant savory herbs, some citrus that follow on the palate, good mouthfeel. More subdued than the best GV I've tasted but tasty and satisfying for everyday. Held well in the frig for 3 days, some lost fruit detected by day 4 when we finished the bottle. Stored vertically (screwcap) in a cool, dark basement since purchase. My evaluation: For me, scores on a "100-point scale" are misleading. I use a 4-category scale (perhaps with +/-)--not including flawed--which runs outstanding/notable/drinkable/poor. This is notable+ when considering quality, age, and price.

Melon, white berry and a bit of baked good character - nice balance between acid, body, not too light and not too heavy - serve at kitchen fridge temperature

A light GV, lacks the bite usually associated with GV. But, is a nice smooth, wine with slight green apple & honey notes.
