Lime, minerality, balanced acidity. Not sure what is going on here, this might be corked (hard to believe from a screw top) or just too old. Not very fresh or fruity as I recall from the tasting room.
10-5-2010 Additional note: Had some left in the refrigerator and was amazed that it came across much better. I'm not going to adjust the score but this would have been an 88 based on today's tasting. Fruit is much livelier. Not sure if I was messed up on the first tasting or something improved in the opened bottle.

Either it sees (too much) oak or the grapes had a lot of mid-palate reediness; ready to drink, but not one to pursue; poor QPR
