reflective, evenly concentrated straw with golden hue and a hint of green. Initial aromas are from fermentation, yeast esters, clotted cream, confectionary sugar, and pear with a touch of banana. Primary fruit aromas are neutral but ripe, pineapple, lemon curd, and baked pear. A dry wine with medium, mouthwatering acidity. Full bodied with a smooth viscosity, touch of astringency. 13.8% ABV lends warmth to the lips. Medium complexity, medium plus concentation. Medium finish is balanced and elegant rather than powerful featuring baked apple, baking spices, and light brown sugar

Phenolic bitterness, and wonky. Screwed it back up, and tossed into the fridge for a couple days. Whamo completely drinkable with wonderful lees texture. Can't beat the price just decant for a day ha

Really, for the price, this is really good for RRV. Not complex, but has nice flavors of tart lime candy, light oak, and good acidity.
