I thought I would hate this, but it was actually very enjoyable. More like a California chard than a Burgundy, and certainly fruit forward, but not overripe, and no heaviness or buttery notes. Not much minerality, but enough acidity to make it food-friendly.
Lemon cream, with hints of pear and grapefruit and a pure hazelnut finish. Nose is fruity, with some tropical fruit (guava maybe?) dominating.
Don't drink this too cold -- it's actually more interesting as it warms up.

As before...superb. Very drinkable, but with lots going on if you want to think about it.
