Community Tasting Notes 1

May 15, 2001 - Penfolds Tasting with the Wine Society (Old Trafford): A fairly deep yellow gold with a marked green tinge. Quite a light nose - fragrant and a bit herbal or even grassy. Good full attack, but a bit lacking in character and depth. Quite a nice creamy texture, but perhaps not entirely in balance with the intense dryness, which was vaguely reminiscent of dry melba toast. Plenty of oak evident on the palate, but in control.
