Community Tasting Notes 3

    November 4, 2018 - Big sweetness that is smooth and tasty. Peach and citrus with a little tang, Very smooth middle and finish, Color is a medium golden. My 375s are developing a bit faster than I expect. Color has a slight brown shift. These will likely be best over the next 5 years even though the wine will last for a very long time

    September 20, 2017 - This bottle did not show the separation of flavors like the last but still was quite nice. big fruity wine with great balance. We served with Chess pie and it went wonderfully.

    This wine is good by itself or with a sweet dessert accompaniment.

    September 3, 2016 - Super smooth and balanced with orange and peach flavors. Slight tartness at the end with a long sweet fruit and soft smoothness on the tongue. The fruit is multilayered and medium full in body. Color is a medium deep yellow with a slight golden shade, edges are slightly green.

    This is a super wine at present (95) but I expect it will get even better with another 10 to 20 years of proper storage (97+)
