Funky. Really funky. Very nice orange tint. Getting a lot of petrol aromas and flavors, oily mouthfeel. Not something I like, but going to leave it open a few days and taste again before tossing.

Interesting. Has developed quite a honey, mead-y flavor.

Tastes better than before, oak is integrating nicely, though this wine is still much better without. Hints of spice with vanilla notes, smooth and buttery.

Torn on this version; probably needs more time to settle in. Compared to unoaked version, very musty with lots of clove aromas and on the tongue.
