Golden in color without sediment. On the nose was completely wacky! Initially hit with warm butter? This burned off followed by floral notes, slight bit of melon but with a little salinity? Weird. Then it started to have notes of burnt fireworks. I must admit, the aromas were completely intriguing. However, the palate didn't really support a 90 pointer. Medium weighted with present acidity and medium long finish. Just didn't quite wow me. Might have been interesting to try again in another couple years.

This is really outstanding, for near-term consumption. Delicate floral nose, dry yet rich, framed by lifting acidity, tremendous minerality on the long finish.
