Not as idiosyncratic and wacky as I expected, but very interesting with different flavors emerging over time. 2006 tasted with it was preferred by others, though not by me that evening. It was more closed.

A murky gold with expressive lemon and ripe apple aromas. The palate was full (borderline fat) and the finish a bit chalky. I wanted to like this more than I did. It needed something to make it seem less awkward...maybe time? ($20, Rosenthal/Mariner)

nose of grapefruit/yellow apple dropped in the dirt. Full rich peppery palate.

Complex, mineral, slightly briny? Enjoyable, good value.

Wine is very very fat and fruity which obscures any subtlety that it should have. This vintage is just too hot for this wine imho.
