This wine is in a great place - so glad we gave a few bottles time to develop. Palate is rich with layers of nuanced flavor and balanced by unobtrusive acidity. Finish smooth and lingering. Had enough substance to make for a perfect pairing with Dungeness crab. No rush to finish remaining bottles.

By the glass taste at a Key West restaurant. Served much too cold, refrigerator temperature and was quite hard, mineral dominated and rather bitter on the finish. After 20+ Minutes it had warmed and was enjoyable though still more restrained than I expected. Light citrus and stone fruit with decent acidity and very modest length on the finish.

Great now and potential to improve. Had this chilled slightly below cellar temp and that seemed about right - no flaws to hide by drinking cold. This presses all the buttons with balance, elegance and richness. Nose is a bit shy but the palate and finish are anything but. Worked well with baked rockfish. Score may be on the conservative side...
