I've actually had this wine many times just not this vintage and since it has been getting hotter in the Seattle area we figured why the hell not? Now my previous notes are ones of joy and delight but I found the 2009 a bit off or just to damn acidic. Nice and crisp but with a thud of an aftertaste of acidity in the back of your throat or in this case mine and Nicole's throat. Did have the pear notes but it was more like an unripe pear and some kind of rhine or peel that was kinda nasty. It was a bit cold when we first dove in and since it was hot out it helped a little but then the aftertaste stuck around. Maybe both of us were having on off day?
