Community Tasting Note

oldwines Likes this wine:

Thursday, May 28, 2020 - Opened 2 bottles, one more “advanced” than the other..ie seemed oxidized and was a medium dark golden yellow, almost copper color. The second bottle looked fresher but was still bordering on the color of an “orange wine”. It was slightly oxidative at first but after an hour it seemed to disappear. Nose is slightly nutty and honied with ripe apricot. Palate was richly textured, moderate in acidity and mostly pear and apricot flavored. Overall this was a little disappointing since I have had other vintages of this wine with 10-12 years on them that were pristine and delicious. Nevertheless this was tasty in its own right, with a long finish and was good both as an ingredient in and paired with a sausage, sage and mushroom tagliatelle pasta dish I made.
