July 27, 2019 - Day 3 or 4. Peach and red apple, lots of cinnamon and spice. Just a bit of the Von Schubert herbal/pine - just touch showing right now. The orchard fruit has some golden/mature aspects to it, but then there's undercurrent of raciness/acid, a touch of citrus and there are hints of tropical - banana. Now some mintiness coming out. White grapes, honey. The palate is just great: it's got golden orchard fruit, honey, white grapes, spices. It's mature with lots of flavor - a potency, and there is a juicy aspect with pulses of grip and zing. Golden, spicy finish. Nose - 5-5.5/6, Palate - 5-5.5/6, Finish - 5/6, Je ne Sais Quoi - 1.5/2 = 16.5-17.5/20.
