Community Tasting Note

Friday, November 3, 2017 - Clear, pale gold in colour.
Clean nose, pronounced aromas of baked yellow orchard fruits (apple, pear, quince), oak (vanilla, smoke), wet wool, honey, walnuts. The wine is fully developed.
The palate is dry with high acidity, medium (+) alcohol (14%), full body, pronounced flavours similar to the nose, with quince dominating, medium (+) finish.
The wine is very good quality, but I suspect will be too much an oxidative style for many palates. It is fully developed and should be drunk now, it is not suitable for further ageing. Personally I love this but it is probably an acquired taste. This is why I've marked it down a bit compared to other vintages I've had of this wine.
