9.1

Very nice balance of condensed fruit and pleasant earth tones. Appreciate aromas of apricot jelly, starfruit, and banana peel with hints of wasabi, green peas, and wool. Drinking nicely now, but could age for a few more years to lower the amount of fruit tones, but wouldn't want the acidity to fall off. — 7 years ago
