Thursday, April 23, 2020 - Day 1: Pop and pour out of the fridge. Flat and lifeless. Not oxidized, just not a whole lot going on. Not much acid, not much fruit, not much of anything. Turns out this REALLY needs air and a little time to warm up. A little better after 15 minutes, and much better after 30 when it starts to come alive. Built more like a Vouvray than a Chablis - it's a wine built on texture.
Day 2: Pop and pour out of the fridge. Dammit, same thing again. Forgot to take it out sooner, but was hoping a day of being open would help. Nope, pretty much the same trajectory as night 1. So there you have it.
