  Steely nose, out of balance, too much cinder on the finish. No impressed.

  Steely nose, medium body, but slightly out of balance due to a lack of front end fruit, and a bit too much cinder cone on the finish. Just not enough fruit. I've been unimpressed with Blue Mountain as of late.

  Light coloured, light straw pale yellow. Light vanilla nose, light fresh wood, melon, is that mint or something mildly menthol or eucapytus? Interesting. Very soft round entry, with maybe a slightly heavy-handed smack of wood, not too much, just abrupt, needs time to integrate... Light bodied, but long lingering finish, acid is perhas a bit out of balance with the rest of it, but this will (/might) be good in a few years... I hope. A day or so later it hadn't really improved at all, lost whatever fruit it might have had, and was just a bit too acidic. I'm hopeful at this point that tme will help, but not overly optimistic.

  Drank with Mike and Coby over Easter weekend 2010. Also remember drinking at the Blue Mountain and tasting and loved it.
