YES. Just arrived at Martha’s Vineyard and opened this with an inaugural meal of a heavily buttered lobster roll and fried whole belly clams. Perfect pairing(?) Nose is heavy petrol and a little funk, some orange marmalade, not too aromatic, but upon drinking you get a burst of crisp acidity and your mouth is just draped with such a rich robe of flavor: manzanilla sherry, vanilla, walnut, preserved lemons, some marzipan. Salty, umami. Love this, very reminiscent of an aged Chablis or light Bourgogne blanc... just fantastic with fried or buttery New England seafood.
