– popped and poured –
– tasted non-blind over 1.5 hours –
Overall, a very “nice” wine, but not incredibly remarkable – Light on the petrol, but heavy on the lime. Nose was moderately expressive. Somewhat lacking in acidity, but the heavy dose of lime flavor kept this from being too fat. Easily has 10+ years left in it, and maybe age would give this wine the jazzy verve it currently lacks. Drank casually with lunch, so no detailed notes or score. As whostler noted, goes down very easily, and is quite tasty.
Gut impression score = 90 points.
