June 17, 2011 - Be VERY careful upon opning this wine and drinking as it shows MASSIVE screw-cap reduction qualities. Downright skunky and entirely unpleasant.
That being said! with air and patience the nose of this wine begines to resemble a freshly licked lemon Altoid--it is absolutely fabulous, and maybe a touch of zest and Pledge thrown in for good measure. A hugely acidic wine (which Prilosec lovers should avoid) which complments creamy, spicy guacomole (which Prilosec lovers should also avoid) quite wonderfully.
Floral, stony, bright, acidic and zippy.
I'm going to enjoy the rest of mine fresh from the icebox this rest summer, even though there is not even the slightest hint of decline here.1,392 views
