Nice acidity for an 03. Lots of citrus with a little bit of slate. Was much better with food...allowed me to pick up a little spiciness on the end as well. Very well made and well balanced, but lacked the wow factor of a really great wine.

Funky nose, hay, smells like the farm? Great mouth feel. Syrupy. Big Pear taste. Nice balance. Smooth finish.

Enjoy the complexity of this wine: tobacco notes give additional interest the nose of pear and dilute lime. Mineral notes are added in the palate.

Straw color, great balanced acidity. Citrus and mineral on the palate with a touch of spice on the finish.

Improved beautifully from the last time that I had this wine. Fuller-bodied GruVe with citrus, pear, melon, and mineral notes. Almost creamy.
