Decent amount CVed 9/7/17 and it’s drinking beautifully. Finish is particularly notable after good impression on nose and lively texture and palate.

Smelled terribly oxidized but everything blew off after some decanting. High tension wine reminded me of a high acid Riesling - a big steely mineral wine with a lot of bite.

Strong but understated. Perfect accompaniment to some Hudson Valley frois grois.
