This wine has a nice feel—it tastes like it’s coated in a thick layer of attic dust, the way some good Champagnes do—with apple and melon fruit below. What I can’t get by is a strong lactic-buttery aroma (no really, it smells like a stick of butter), which lets up some on the palate. Finishes on a sour-apple lollipop note.
