Anita: Anita: Geez--14.5% was just a difficult hurdle to overcome. I could drink some of it the first night, w/some ccandied frt notes (hardly any SB char.) the second it seemed it was liquid alcohol. Way out of whack, very pure alc. in mth--bitter and hot.

Loire tasting (Michaels appartment): Light yellow color, looking a bit hazy due to particles in the wine. Smoke and wine gum on the nose, but with some air it becomes more refined and notes of yellow fruit and grilled mushrooms pops up. Over the palate it has fat yellow fruit, mirabelle and melon, and a note of oak over the midpalate. Good length, ending in a dry finish.
