Surprising and disappointing considering our other experiences with VC -- this had no vibrancy, no acidity; totally flabby; slightly minerally, watery taste; minerality could have been nice but was too brought down by the (lack of) structure; we had marked this down in CT as being from '08, but it turned out to be '06 in a tricky font, so perhaps a little past its prime

Central Coast Trip: Subtly nutty, with a slight spiciness and waxiness to the fruit. Very minerally flavors are cool-toned but a little short.

Made from 75% Roussanne and 25% Grenache Blanc. Limes and Grapefruit. Clean, crisp finish with a touch of bitterness.
