  After a very stressful 9 days of intense and focused work, I needed something to help me relax. I reached into the cellar and found this among the racks. The nose smells of yeast and pineapple. The color is a light straw color. The wine is nicely oaked, with some vanilla and straw. My 8-year old daughter said it "smells like rotten cherry pits." What does she know? Anyway, nice on a week day. Probably needs some time for the oak to mellow. I would give it another 3 years. Score based on now.
