The Sommelier

I swished the full-bodied flavor around to the various zones on my tongue. It was fruity yet possessed a big intense sapor.

I found it to be both austere and astringent, salty and sweet.

Then surprisingly, it was beautifully luscious and buttery, layered with an elegant subtle earthiness followed by an assertive aftertaste possessing both length and depth.

Pleasant, but ultimately only lacking balance.

Then when I thought it was done it finished fruity and acidic. Overall it was a decent vintage in contrast to how he said she described it.
