P: Med, poss LM, body; Very NICE, ALMOST swtish frt met by some astringent pucker which seamlessly, pretty much works its way out by the very LONG, impeccably balanced, tangy/swt finish. LOVELY stuff for now & the next 4 yrs? 14.5% ABV; My EXC+ (94,95/100 on that scale) taking into account the *astounding* QPR for the $12 sugg retail! '19 Contest results: Golds @ Monterey Int'l, Pacific Rim, & S.D. Int'l Challenge (90 pts), Silver @ CA State Fair, and Bronzes @ S.F. Chronicle & TEXSOM Int'l!
