Community Tasting Note

  • sjfunkenhauser wrote: 93 points

    March 17, 2024 - Pop and pour. Intense spice on the nose, followed by ripe orchard fruit, citrus pith, minerality and salinity. Generous mouthfeel, with balanced acidity and a superb finish. Definitely needs some time to open up, and continued to improve over 2 hours. Very good.

    Medium gold colour.

    Pronounced aromas of cinnamon, nutmeg, baked apple, apple crisp, ripe pear, toasted almonds, yellow apple peel, vanilla, lemon confit, wet stone, crushed oyster shells, sea foam.

    Pronounced palate.

    Medium body, high acidity, long finish.
