Community Tasting Notes 2

May 22, 2013 - An orphan bottle from an unclaimed wine locker at Anvil. Deep yellow gold color looked somewhat promising upon pour. Nose was vintage sweaty socks. Taste was surprisingly not awful. Couldn't really pick out a primary flavor - it simply tasted like wine, albeit not a very good one. Another interesting experiment if nothing else.

May 22, 2013 - Deep golden yellow color. Has an oxidized, sherry-like quality on the nose, but there is a hint of apple underneath. Tastes better than it smells- melon, apple and sherry flavors. Thin across the palate with a short finish. Probably would have been pleasurable up to 2002, but now nothing more than a barely drinkable curiosity.
