Pine & Post is taken pillar to post with this review. Not a sipping wine to be sure, but better with a dinner more that anything else. May I suggest perhaps Chicken Saltimbocca? Better wine choices for the price: Fisheye 2004 or Crane Lake 2004. Both wines are $6 or less.

It’s a clear, bright medium-pale straw yellow wine. Your nose won’t detect much in the way of aroma, but your palette will probably detect something on the herbaceous side. My best guess: asparagus or artichoke, as this wine has a decidedly cooked vegetable taste to it. There’s some moderate acidity and definite dryness to this wine, as well as a short finish. The balance is good, but there’s so much else that needs improvement. There are no off notes.
