Community Tasting Note

wrote:

Monday, October 9, 2017 - To the eye orange/gold/light brown tint, a bit cloudy (had it laid down so not a fair take)
Burnt orange, candle wax, petrol on the nose. Spicy citrus/tangerine. Hint of wood smoke.
I had 2 bottles and drank the first 2 years ago. Had no idea what to make of it then and did not appeal to me. Tonight very different impression. For sure not for everyone, more in the wine geek territory. The burnt orange, spicy citrus and paraffin follows on the pallet framed with good acidity. My association is to a dry furmint on steroids - concentrated intense desert wine like without the sweetness. Had it with a lemon thyme roasted chicken breast which made a terrific pairing. thoughtful juice which needs some work at understanding it, but once I got it it was a thoroughly enjoyable unique bottle. No rating as it is going to be a very subjective experience. Curious how others found this.....
