This wine poured a rather light straw color to the glass. The nose and palate were a bit divergent. On the nose, lots of herbaceous quality with lemongrass and tart/crisp character to it that seemed like it was going to rip the enamel off your teeth despite its 10 year age. But on the palate, this one is surprisingly round with a fair amount of honeycrisp apple creme brulee but did have some subtle tropical things in the background (mango maybe?). Didn't finish all that heated, but noticeable white pepper. This one was actually revisited after a slow ox in a refrigerator over 24 hours but by that time it had lost at least a step and a half. I'd say there's no reason to wait on this one -- pop and enjoy!

Vibrant young burg. The gf and I really enjoyed this one. Crisp fruit, balanced acidity. Just a very enjoyable white burg.
