Community Tasting Note

wrote:

87 Points

Tuesday, October 6, 2015 - clean and clear, medium leom greene core w/ watery rim. Developing

on the nose it is clean with medium intense aromas of; oak, butter, passion fruit, lemon, yellow apples, some stonefruit/tropical fruit. Developing

on the palate it has medium+ aciddity, medium+ %, body and flavour intensity with aromas of; oak, lime, som tropical fruit, butterish mouthfeel, something a bit greene, almost like gooseberry. Medium aftertaste.

high $ price with potential for agening, 2-5 more years maybe. It is intense and quite complex but has too high % and that makes is not that balanced in my opinion. Lacks a bit concentration also too be of outstanding quality. Lenght is almost long and is driven by the acidity and oak flavour. very good quality, 87-88p
