TN: Blandy's 15 Year Old Sercial

Post by Steve Shapiro »

Tasted at a wine store tasting. Chris Blandy present to provide info and his usual enthusiasm. Light to medium yellow. Clean, floral nose with touch of salt. Nice fruit, lemon peel with good acidity. Short finish. I find sercials difficult to appreciate. This one lacks the usual searing acidity, but has enough fruit to keep it interesting... and, the price is right. 15+/20. Chris says that they are dropping this from the line to focus on the 10 year old sercial as their "Welcome to Sercial" wine. I purchased this for the cellar.
