On Thursday 19^th December 2013 a subset of the obvious suspects gathered at The Bell in Wendens Ambo to taste old, peculiar and unknown bottles.

Links:

• Review of the evening as a whole;
• Sticky labels and other paperwork, and parameters by which constructed.
• Planning and arrangements.

Bottled 2011. Subdued nose, showing a little dried apricot. Lightweight mouthfeel, light flavour profile. A dry finish with a subdued aftertaste and modest finish. 85/100.

Slightly nondescript nose. Harsh alcohol and a slightly industrial feel to this. Best feature is a finish full of black olives that shows with pleasing dryness. 87

My notes said “Lovely soft smooth full-bodied colheita”. No, not very specific.
