Community Tasting Note

  December 30, 2018 - Popped this open while baking and decorating a cake for New Years Eve. The community here thinks this is right at or just past its prime. Not sure I agree. The wine was bright, clear, and a brilliant gold in color. The nose revealed ripe peaches, fresh cut apples, white flowers, baking spice and wet stones. On the palate it was soft, supple, with quite a bit of acidity after all these years. The flavor profile was more fresh ripe peaches, apricot, subtle hints of green apple, and spice. Medium mouth feel, remaining brightness of the acidity, and a nice long finish give me hope that this wine will cellar a bit longer, perhaps another 2-3 years, and reveal some interesting traits with more age. I am going to hold on my last bottle to see what it does 3 years from now.
