Clear, 14k gold, still body. Smells of dry pear & a touch of melon. Taste is primarily melon & dry, flat champagne. The sort of glass that has sat around for a few hours after the New Years ball drop, but it still somewhat satisfying. Flavored water & grape sort of sweetness. Slight twang & ash, with an apple peel bitterness. Light on tartness, with a casual sourness that is pleasant. Simple & solid.
