May 16, 2008 - SierraDoc's Birthday Bash (Copperopolis, CA): Color: Deep gold
Nose: Honey, bruised apples and wax. Slight amounts of white flowers and mineral.
Palate: Coats mouth. Tons of waxy flavors(candle wax or paraffin) as well as burnt popcorn, nuttiness, and green apples(unripe). Acid was weird and unbalanced. Not a lot of botrytis characteristics. Very much like '99 D'yqyem which I had a few weeks ago. Somewhat dissapointing... Very disjointed and awkward. Maybe it was too young to consume.
Had with vanilla bean ice cream, which made it better, but the waxy notes were very overpowering.
