WTN: Forlorn-Hope Faufreluches GWT '13...(short/boring)

Tried this w/ Susan Fri night:
1.Forlorn-Hope TheFaufreluches GWT HillVnyd/RRV (13.50%; 134 cs; Frmtd 10 days on skins) 2013: Med.gold some burnished bronze color; rather phenolic/resiny/pungent quite fragrant/perfumed/honeyed some GWT/floral/CinammonCrisp interesting/complex nose; rather soft some phemolic/resiny rather honeyed/GWT/spicy/orangey quite dry bit austere complex flavor w/ light tangy/bitey tannins; very long rather phenolic/resiny honeyed/orangey/CinammonCrisp dry/austere light floral/GWT/spicy finish w/ light tangy/bitey tannins; rather strong phenolic/resiny character but some of the floral/GWT fruit shows thru; a rather unusual/exotic GWT that needs food w/ it...and needs age as well. $26.00

1. This is not a GWT for the faint of heart. It shows a lot of the skin-contact resiny/phenolic but still has enough GWT fruit to walk a fine-line between skin-contact white and standard made GWT. Rather exotic rendition of GWT.
