  Joel II: 9.6% 25.3 Brix 8.1% RS
  Medium amber. Cork 1/3 soaked through.
  Ripe nectarine and Meyer lemon. Some TDN. Evident but secondary browned apple. Slight acetic acid - hint of apple cider vinegar.
  On the palate, sweet - feels 20-30g RS. High acid. Slight phenolic bitterness. Slight malic. More browned apple core on the palate but also some peach and TDN. Long finish. Savory.
  Slight apricot and tart sweet tomato. No botrytis.
