  toasty dry popcorn, mandrin oranges, elderberry, some melon
  
  conc: fruit slightly starting to develop, touch of bitterness coming through on end, will see how it is with food. \drink now dont see it aging for long period [makes sense as vines are young]

  Painted Rock Portfolio Tasting (Wine Vault): C: Pale Lemon.
  
  A: Med+ Intensity Initially oak is on the nose, and was quiet scared because I know this is 100% New French Oak, started to blow off, peachy, pear, toast, burnt popcorn [good!]
  
  T: med Acid, med+ body, med+ finish
  Lemon, Apple, Pear, Mineral, CLEAN,
  
  Conclusion reminded me a Mersault I had couple weeks ago, so good and clean fruit, the Oak Integrates/disappears so WELL, I would drink this wine and Im not a Chard/Oak Fan
