| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 2/5 | 15/20 | Apr 26, 2009 Updated: Apr 27, 2009Cloudy orange, slowly emerging white head. Nice aroma - mix of orange juice (my notes say "smells like Tang". I’m pretty sure that’s what I meant.) Also rhubarb? And kind of buttery, but not in a dyacetal way. Flavor is winey and herbal, with sweet, juicy notes mixed in. Palate seemed a bit syrupy, maybe some more time in the bottle would’ve dried it out. Good Stuff.
