Friday, June 12, 2020 - Nose: [59°] Some fresh toast, halved green apples, ripe yellow pear with its unwashed skins, some grass/dry hay, a very subtle creamy vanilla note and finely crushed rocks.

Palate: [60°] Dark yellow fruit with clean and subtle minerals, a really nice and soft prickly spice that works really well, a loaf of bread that's been toasted, a bit of dry hay, branches and tree bark.

Attributes: Medium straw color. Dry with little amounts of supple tannin. Medium to medium-plus body with medium to medium-plus acidity. Good finish of about 16-18+ seconds.

Thoughts: Very enjoyable, good weight to this. There's this juiciness that keeps you wanting to drink more (kinda dangerous in my opinion). The fruit here is balanced well by the bitterness and juiciness. There's also some energy here that kinda teases me, making me wish there was just a bit more energy to this. It feels like it's a little torn between trying to be dense and refreshing.

Other notes: Burgundy glass. Slow-ox'ed in bottle for the duration of consumption of 2 hours.
