difficult wine to evaluate. overpriced for sure. coming out of the decanter after 30 minutes, the wine poured clear as water. bouquet muted, palate thin. what was there was pretty - tart pear, steely and marine minerals. would not have guessed chard if tasted blind.
gave it a second day. wine had grown from thin to light. great balance, pure, but still extremely petite.
right on the fence between delicate and too delicate.
