SierraDoc's Birthday Bash (Copperopolis, CA): Color: Medium Straw Gold, slightly hazy. Appears to be unfined and unfiltered. Nose: Right after popping this open, there was a strong matchstick nose, but the presence of this dissipated quite a bit about an hour into it. Lots of Sour Peach gummy candy, toasted pine nuts, honeycomb, shale, apricot, buttered toast and almonds were also present on the nose.
Palate: Very creamy. Light amounts of honeycomb on the front of the palate. Lots of lemon zest. Had incredible minerality and even petrol notes in the finish. Finish was quite long. Medium to medium plus acid. Very full bodied white wine.
