"(just racked and sulfured but still has about 60% of its malic acidity; Saumaize will filter the wine and add a bit more SO2 than usual, noting that he doesn't have any choice): Cool aromas of mirabelle, menthol, citrus fruits and ripe apple. Fat and powerful in the mouth, with a distinct malic note to the apple and spice flavors. Finishes saline and long. This wine will need a year or two in bottle to harmonize. - Stephen Tanzer"
