This is great wine. Getting a little long in the tooth, but it's still delicious. A bright streak of chalk and granite, followed by lush pear and vanilla. The nose is a bit tight, I'm guessing due to age. The finish is long and pleasant.

On opening at frig temps, the nose was very floral and fruity. But flavor was quite muted, though very flinty. After an hour or two of air and warming a bit, this became much more interesting, with pear, pineapple, honeycomb and still some minerals. Reminded me of a Marsanne.

Delightful. Crisp and lively; makes me realize that some Italian whites can be scrumptious!
