October 30, 2015 - From a 375ml: This is in a lovely place where it's showing the vibrancy of youth, yet with some depth and complexity that often shows in time. Tropical notes on the nose & palate with an almost gulp-able quality as vibrant fruit notes lingering the palate. Excellent with clams & coleslaw.
