bright and crisp, with excellent fizz. green melons and citrus. the fruit is a bit under-ripe, however, and the finish is sour. Could have used an extra week of hang time.

A nose that's so delicate it's almost fragile, and it's possible to miss the fact that there is real character and interest in there. The nose has slender and wispy saline and creamy aromas, quite narrow in focus, but also deep and reflective of old vine intensity. The palate follows the nose - its not about variety and broadness of flavor, but rather focus, depth, and intensity of the creamy saline flavors. Lovely wine. Probably more compelling to those who already are fans of this wine than to people drinking it for the first time this vintage.

According to CT, I drank this 2 years too late. But delicious, and a bit complex.

Monthly Tasting Group: Spain and Portugal (Rincon 38, Mpls, MN): Pale gold with a spritz. Drank 1 glass over 30 minutes. Light body , citrus, mineral, lime. Pleasant, a little short on the finish.

Not too much on the nose, slightly floral, perhaps some melon. Crisp, refreshing and acidic with flavors of minerals, lemon, and apple.
