    Clear, light gold. Refreshing young medium intense aromas of grapefruit, green apple and almonds. In the palate, it shows medium alcohol and body but the acidity is a tad low. Some waxy fruit notes come through on the medium finish. Drink up now. (85 pts.)

I was turned off enough that I actually emailed the retailer from which I bought this wine to ask if it was supposed to be this low in acid.

#3

Odd, as this is typically a VERY high acid wine…

#4

I am somewhat puzzled too, as two bottles drank on Malta last November were great. Agreed, it’s no Riesling acid-wise but definitely with enough refreshing acidity to last for two more years.

#5

I thought it was meh.

#6

I’ve had the 2008 and it was terrific. Super interesting nose…the kind of white that tricks you into thinking it will be sweet but there is no RS in the mouth.

#7

Totally agree.

“A little grassy, a little hay, a little herbal. All on top of some sweet oranges and some lemon. It’s got a nice viscous, oily quality but the acidity balances it out.” 90pts.

Should have mentioned that this was from 375ml…just in case it makes a difference.
