6/2/2022 - ktnjr Likes this wine: 93 points

Decanted for half hour.
Nose I got green apple, pear, honey and some lime and lime zest.
On the palate it has really nice acidity. A really soft velvety feeling coats your whole mouth. A really lovely wine and the bottle didn't make it to the next day. Really glad I have two more left.

PNP. Really nice golden straw color.
On the nose I got lemon, lemon zest, some mineral and a little tropical fruit. On the palate I thought the wine was really lite. I did get lemon, saline and minerals flavors. I also did pick up some butter some others have put in their notes. Medium tp long finish.
Although it had good acidity I don't think this will last. I have one more bottle and I will drink it this fall.

PNP. Aromas jumps out of the glass. Dark Rudy red that stained the glass.
On the nose, ripe red fruits. Some leather and I did pick up some baked bread. On the palate is a totally different story. It was nothing you picked up on the nose. Really lacking in the fruit. I also got the lemon acidic note. I could finish the bottle and end up putting the rest down the drain. A really bad wine!

Poured into a decanter. Color is clear with a golden straw edge.

No notes. Just wanted to say this was a Berserk purchase and I will be buying more wines for sure!! At the first taste I knew right away this bottle wasn't going to make it through the night. It was really good! Both on the nose and on the palate. Very well done! I will do note on my remaining bottles.
