Pale yellow, light floral notes after initial pour, no noticeable oak; light extraction. Quaffable but nothing distinctive. Poor showing from Hyde fruit. A better showing after an hour.

Ummmm, wtf is going on with this wine? I have had such great experiences with Ramey in the past, this wine is SOOO oaky. Oak domination aromatics flavor, tannin, yuck. Not often a wine I can’t drink. Maybe I got a weird bottle...
