Community Tasting Note

Tuesday, July 25, 2017 - Bottled 26th of October 2010. 11% alcohol. Served blind.

Concentrated golden yellow color with a hint of copper. Very developed nose way beyond its peak with aromas of green pea pod aromas of thiols, some perfumed notes, a little bit of oxidized Granny Smith apple and a hint of soap. Light-bodied, tart and thin on the palate with quite dull and dead flavors of green apples, green thiols and a faint hint of nuttiness. The wine is moderately high in acidity. The finish is sharp, dead and tired with short aromas of steel and bitter apple peel.

Having tasted this wine once before, I recognized this one blind. The wine was as dead as it was a few years ago. From what I've understood, the wine was really beautiful for a few years after its bottling and after that it just went completely dead.
