Judging Results |
|
lees work evident, sl cheesey
quite glycerolic upfront but tannins extractive, quinone character, heavy alcohol |
WTF? Dirty lees character very off putting on the nose. Hot and broad palate. |
Med straw, oats, apricot and chinese tea, tea character strong on the palate, good viscosity to match warmth and phenolics, out of class? |
Honeydew melon, lacking acidity and very bitter finish |
