Community Tasting Note

Thursday, October 7, 2010 - Andrew and Brad purchased this from the winery on the Wildfire trip a couple years ago and gave it to me for my birthday. We were long awaiting the day when it made sense to crack the cork. Bears versus Packers on Monday Night Football...when could be better?!
Dark gold color. Some very slightly reductive notes. Yellow apple, honey, oak, wet dark rock, pineapple and golden fig. On the back end there's a distinct aroma of yellow flowers - daffodils. Palate is weighty, fat and flashy. Nice roasted nutty depth - almonds, yellow raisins, vanilla and peach fuzz flavors on the front palate. The wine attacks sweet with a solid full mid palate. Great acid on the finish. Can sense the French Oak influence on the juice. More tropical than citrus fruit, but there's absolutely both present. Real pretty and real big. Enjoyed by all.
