  November 22, 2011 - Clear light. Not much aroma, restrained fruit. Crisp, flat. Bad corked.

  June 11, 2011 - Pale golden color. Light bodied. Like a tropical fruit salad in a glass: lemons, papaya, mangos. The texture is a little too meaty, it could use more acidty, but all in all very pleasant and refreshing. No premox here; this bottle is holding up well.

  February 6, 2011 - Quick note from memory. nice nose, no evidence of oak (i am assuming all stainless handling) with pure fruit nicely balanced with acid. leaning towards a little oxidation which reminds me a little of verget wines after a couple of years. i can't speak to how this wine had been handled because we drank at a restaurant, but if i owned some, i would try a bottle soon because it seems to me on the edge of falling apart. did pair nicely with a mussel dish.
