Very linear on the nose and palate, with strong chalky notes influenced by some vegetal and creamed corn aromas. Bristling with mineral and acidity, it really hits the midpalate and burns through to a moderate finish. Ok, but really needs food. Not sure if this will ever really flesh out.

BOB (Ramirez's): A great nose that smells like a fresh spring rain. Lime and cream. And a touch of nuttiness. Creamy lime flavors on the palate with solid acidity. Some nutty and yeasty characteristics. Long, long finish that has a touch of white pepper. Great wine.

This didn't show well. May have been corked (I have zero TCA sensitivity) but it's also a screw cap. Lots of spritz the first day I opened it. Not much else. The second day it was an alcoholic mess. I think I tasted it at an Age of Riesling tasting and it was fine then, but not this one. A Terry Thiese Import. (I pulled it in honor of becoming a fan of Terry Thiese wines on Facebook).

Very interesting. Odd, piney, almost like a resiny Greek wine. Light, dry. Herbal, with good acid.
