Domaine Séailles 1997 Cask #27 51%

Nose: My hand shook and my eyes watered the first sniff. Put it down and came back 20 minutes later. Still intense. Profoundly intense. Peach kombucha and ripe peach skins. Good n plenty after leaving them in the sun and it melts into a brick. Anti-freeze. Acetone / nail polish on the back end (Ryan).

Palate: Peach turned to 11. White tea. Roasted peanuts. And I stand by kombucha. Muted, no bass cocoa nibs and chocolate covered espresso beans.The subtle sweetness you sometimes get when licking an envelope shut. Grape flesh.

Rating: 6 (Ryan) 5 (Shane) / 10 – This is all treble, no base. The flavors are good but something missing.
