What am I drinking

Tonight I'm enjoying the fruits of my labours. In my glass is a parsnip wine, it came from a batch of 3 gallons and this is only the 3rd bottle to be opened. I call mind Tanglefoot as that's the ancient name for it, well in the south of England it is anyway. It's not quite 6 months old. I have some left from last year's batch too, but that's now vintage by my standards, so only gets opened when I'm sharing.

Anyway this Tanglefoot is 13% ABV, clear as a bell and very nearly colourless. It's clean, crisp, dry and the flavour lingers. It has notes of ginger and citrus fruit and zest too ... hmmm that would be cos I added small quantities of each of then! The flavour that comes through from the parsnip is subtle, very subtle, but is a bit earthy and a bit radish, or perhaps grassy!
