Color: canary, golden, straw, apple juice
Rim: clear
Clarity: clear, No sediment
Nose: cat pee, citrus, green apple, cheap white wine
Taste: cheap white wine, sour
Mouthfeel:
-Body: N/A
-Acidity: high
-Tannins: medium
-Sweetness Type: little sweet, mid-palette, artificial
-Finish: short, astringent
Conclusion:
Would I drink this again? Yes
Would I buy it again? No, not without a specific reason
Rating: N/A
Note: We wrote this note as the third in a 3-White Port tasting preceded by Quevedo and Warre's. Perhaps this, being dry, would have been better received had we tried it first rather than after having two fairly sweet Ports. As it was, we were overwhelmed by its dryness and astringency. Lesson learned.
