| Drunk at one of DC's dinner party (10/1/04) - very pale green. A delightfully light floral nose with hints of lime. On the palate, full of refreshing limes, whiffs of violets and minerals. It tastes so fresh that it is like splashing mountain spring water on one's face early in the morning. Crisp acidity moderated by a rounded finish that does not pucker the mouth. Delicious with delicately flavoured dishes, it was a good foil for the sesame oil salmon steamed eggs. This wine drinks so well right now that it is hard to see why one should cellar bottles of it for years... |
