Good minerality and citrus (Grapefruit). The acidity is off-set by some lush fruit (pear, melon). There is a slight hint of sweetness, which is off-set by a tart flavor like sucking a peach pit. Could be a little crisper, but interesting and enjoyable, though I prefer the 2010.

- Light gold color with medium forming legs and aromas of cut green grass. It's somewhat balanced and has flavours of melon and violet with a medium body. Polished texture with a medium finish.

Wow, this really shows the vintage - rich, ripe and fat, with low acid and frankly awkward sweetness. Love this wine generally and have been drinking it for 3 or 4 vintages now in great quantity, but this vintage is a real miss for my taste.

It was good but not amazing. A little tart and sour.
