Wednesday, December 26, 2012 - Very nice wine, but a touch out of balance for me. I was hoping for a little more mineral presence to balance the blockbuster fruit. With re-tasting, over-the-top perfume-florals present on the palate; a little soapy flavor and a touch oily extraction, but might be the extreme of the lychee. I would change my expectations of how to serve this wine. Instead of trying to pair this with a full meal, where it competed and over-powered to dishes, a simple terrine or cheese course pairing might be the best way to enjoy.
