50% new oak yields a deep lemon color from the oak. Buttery but nice citrus, lemon peel, butter and waxiness.
Round, elegant with crisp acidity on a medium finish. The oak spicy note continues on the finish.

Jan 16th, 2015Not a big fan... pretty oxidized which I am totally down for but it didn’t have the acidity to back it up so it just felt big and too much after a few sips. Was hoping for a little cleaner setup.
