Community Tasting Note

Sunday, September 5, 2021 - Med gold with a copper hue. Surprising. Med (+) aromas of overripe pear, yellow apple, lemon, lime, honey, lots of petrol, white flowers, wet stone. Dry, with only 3g/L RS. Med (+) acidity, med alcohol (12%). Med (+) flavor intensity and length with a nice mineral finish. Still, this seems like an off bottle as it is quite different from the 2017,
