Jun 1, 2008 1L bottle. Pours clear and golden yellow with an immediately disappearing white head. Aroma is dry, phenol and crisp apple. Flavour shows an initial sweetness which soon gains a nice dry phenol note providing wood like notes. Shows a more bitter and acidic flavour towards the finish. Phenol and dry wood notes reappear at the back of the nose. Nice one.
