  WSET fun part 2 (The Lobby): Colour: Clear, medium intensity ruby with slight tears
  Aroma: Clean, medium intensity aroma, youthful with aromas of ash, herbaceous/stalky notes, minerals - chalk, over muted black and red cherry and slight candy floss
  Mouth: A dry wine with sour medium plus acidity, medium minus intensity talc textured mid and front of mouth tannic burr that begins to dry the palate, medium plus alcohol, medium plus body, medium minus flavour intensity with flavours of stalks and cherry that do persist on the medium plus length finish.
  Quality: good. the obvious use of stalks and implied thoughtful wine making suggest that this wine, though youthful, will improve with age . This is reinforced by the relative balance and the addition of tertiary characteristics with time though the relative lack of intensity on the palate is a concern.
