Medium bodied, medium straw. Unique aromatics with lots of terroir inspired minerality. Not much fruit and what is there seems to be subdued. May be slightly over the hill and tired. Acidity and flavors severely lacking.

Haven't had this in several years, but found at GOutlet for a song ($4) so I had to try...presto - a real winner! Lush ripe fruit, perhaps a tad much for some dishes but marvelous on its own. Not a lightweight on the oak, either, but eminently drinkable and it blows away most competitors under $25. Friends can't believe the closeout price, either. Bought another case for the winter (ok, for the late Fall - it will never last until Jan...)
