The Hatch Life Cycle of a Hobo 2016
East Kelowna Slopes, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaIf you think that 'Life Cycle of a Hobo' doesn't necessarily roll off the tongue, try müller-thurgau. This is thirty year old müller-thurgau from a single vineyard in East Kelowna. Perfumed and floral gooseberries, peach, apricot kernel and an alluring in a compact, lean, dry frame. There's a grip of peach fuzz to texture, and an alluring bitter note on the snappy finish. This shows m-t in a whole new light - not soft and floral and flabby, but taut and dry and characterful.Tasted: 29 August 2017Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:BC | $26.00 | 750ml | winery direct |
