Caroline Wine Shop - Italy-Tuscany (Carolines Wine Shop): Greenish to straw colour with an initial flinty and steely note, relatively neutral, there is a slight beery and touch of old wood oxidation (like lactic acid in cheddar). The palate shows high-toned fruit, is grapy with Forelle pear, yellow peach and a combination of leesy and fynbos honey (almost nougat) characteristics. Bone dry, again slightly showing oxidation and a warming finish. I struggled with this.
