Starbucks 'Trenta': How The New Size Compares To Your Stomach
Famous Death Row Last Meals
Duck Walk Vineyards Aphrodite 2004 is a Late Harvest Gewurztraminer grown on the North Fork of Long Island, NY and made by the same folks who own Pindar Vineyards. It is 11% abv. / 22 proof, the Harvest Brix is 28, and the residual sugar is at 8%. The color is pale gold with a medium light body. The aroma is vaguely that of lemons and grapefruit. When I was trying to determine the taste all that I got was a light tartness followed by a hint of sweetness, but no really discernable flavors of any type. I put the bottle away and came back to it the next day and came to the same conclusion, that is was boring, with no real flavors going on here. I poured another glass and let it warm up to room temperature. Finally I got some flavor, a hint of pineapple and a bit of acid, but that was about it. It wasn't bad, but nothing to talk about.
The bottle notes say: " A Late Harvest table wine with a hint of botrytis. The texture is opulent, the feel is velvety. Honeysuckle, apricot, peach and honey dominate in this wine." I really got none of that and wonder if the writer tasted the same wine as I, or was just picking words out of a list, especially the bit about honeysuckle which is a really unique and noticeable aroma and taste. I think the wine is just wishing it was a dessert wine. Maybe when the vines get all grown up it will be, but as for now it's just a wannabe.
