Community Tasting History

Community Tasting Notes (average 89.3 pts. and median of 88 pts. in 4 notes) - hiding notes with no text

 Tasted by shaftlet on 5/8/2013 & rated 88 points: Well done for the pricepoint. Very textbook, although a little flabby given the vintage. More appeal for American drinkers. 2011 is a good crossover vintage for the Loire. Very ripe, with a dulled sense of terroir. In any case, being American, I enjoy the richness. Lots of gooseberry, anise, asparagus. 13 percent abv here which is higher than previous vintages. Round mouthfeel. Medium body without the tart acidity of previous vintages. (1562 views)
 Tasted by Orlandus on 8/24/2012 & rated 87 points: Dry and on the tart side, but with distinct character. A decent wine that is defnitely different. (1923 views)
