Monday, January 27, 2020 - -- decanted immediately before initial taste --
-- tasted non-blind over approx. 3 hours --

NOSE: high-toned; red-fruited; initial moderately strong sulphur note; medium-light to medium expressiveness; "warm"; red currants.

BODY: lots of hazy sediment; ruby color with bricking throughout of shallow depth; medium-light bodied.

TASTE: red fruits – medium-light intensity; high acidity; medium oak; 13.3% alc. not noticeable; seems somewhat thin/lacking stuffing. Enjoyable, but seems to be quicker-maturing for an Arcadian; I liked this more than the score indicates --- I did knock it down a couple points for its haziness, bricking, and more-than-usual amount of sediment. Drink Now.

50, 3, 11, 15, 6 = 85
