2013- a little odd, oxidized aroma and grainy ale like flavor.

It is sharp and citrus like grapefruit. Good with chocolate! The more you drink the better it is!

It has aromas of peaches, pears, citrus blossom, sage, honeysuckle, Apple, lime and lemon. Zesty citrus character on the palate with notes of peach, melon, floral blossoms and spice. Have it with a bacon wrapped lobster tail, caramelized endives and a citrus Greek yogurt cream sauce.
