Wine was a touch strange at initial open. Almost tasted flat with a risotto mushroom with Italian sausage and gouda dish. Acidity started peaking though. Hints of peach and pear. Not much nuttiness or caramelized or brioche character here. Dried herbs on the finish. Could this be in a strange place? Possibly. Gonna keep the other one under lock and key for a year or so.
