  Still drinking just as wonderfully as a year ago. Such a nice, tart snap balanced by ripe fruits and as it ages, the body and structure are moving in a subtle direction with additional persistence in the flavor and finish. Wish I had more

  Very pale straw color, <5% opaque. Fresh cut white nectarine, lychee's, kiwi, lemon peel, and granadilla aroma waft from the glass. Deeper in, I get some butter and petrol notes, too. Palate is light to medium bodied with medium-high acidity and the flavors are consistent to the bouquet. Gets an extra point or two for the nice field blend complexity represented. Alcohol is a little prominent at pop but subdues with time open. Good for medium bodied seafood like swordfish, ahi, shark. Second day, even more nuance and flavor came out. Very pretty wine (4+12+17+7) = 90
