Found July 2012
Of all the Lost and Found wines I have tried over the past few days I am the most shocked about this one ... it was a hot summer day and we were sitting on the back deck that`s when I had the thought "why not open up an older Riesling" ... what I got instead was a disjointed mess of a wine that had prematurely oxidize into something undrinkable. The colour was deep and dark, like a rancid apple juice, and the smell was not much better. This wine had developed a sickeningly sweet character that permeated the entire wine, there was a hint of apricot and pear if you dove deep enough, but that got enveloped so quickly by that sweetness that it ruined the entire experience of drinking this wine. Four sips and I was done ... the wife took three less - I guess I`m just a glutton for punishment. Lost & Found Rating: Trash
