Much better than the last bottle. Tingling acid with a hint of toasted almond due to the aging nice over ripe fruit notes.

A bit past its prime, but still very enjoyable with dinner.

It's close to being really solid but falls short of excellent. I can't explain why.

Intoxicating smell of fruit, perhaps melon or honeydew. Initially, we made the wine too cold but the fragrance and taste really opened up as we let it warm up. Taste is of lemon mixed with lime and a bit creamy taste. Full-bodied flavor and delicious. Reminds me of an Aligote.
