Rhône biodynamic Viognier. 17 year old vines. Stainless steel vats. Plastic cork.
Apricot, tomatillo (native yeast?), orange juice, honey suckle.
Full, creamy with just enough acidity, a mere 14.5% abv. Cooked apricot and light herbs on the palate with slight alcoholic touch. Almost vodka impression. Hint of bitter followed by long liquorice, dandelion and raw wheat, burnt sugar aftertaste.
Day 2: banana joining. Tomatillo gone. Liquorice gained some nice length.
