Color between straw and honey. Nose of candied lemon and wet stones. Notes of candied lemons, grass and minerals on the palate. Nice finish of honey and wet stones. Has held up well, but any remaining bottles should be consumed immediately.

Finished my last bottle of this vintage last night. In contrast to the earlier bottle, this one showed less well. Slightly bitter after taste, disjointed. It came together with time -- we drank it over a couple of nights -- and both nose and taste improved. Keeping expectations in line with the $7 cost, I still enjoyed this bottle less than in previous encounters with the wine.

Opened to use in risotto. Finished the next evening. Very nice wine for the money ($7). Definately one to have on hand for everyday use. Bracing but not overbearing acidity, nice citrus zest and floral tones. Soft finish.
