Community Tasting History

Community Tasting Notes (average 91.3 pts. and median of 91 pts. in 5 notes) - hiding notes with no text

 Tasted by olracx62 on 7/17/2014 & rated 91 points: light golden yellow at the eye. Typical Sicilian chardoonay, elegant and classy, with vanilla, citrus and clear almond. Fat enough, butter. If compared to other Sicilian chardonnays, Tasca shows less overwhelming (althogh 14.5° alcohol) and less boisee. But also a little bit less complex. HOwever it is a great wine. Probably best in a couple of years from now (1199 views)
 Tasted by startinoz on 11/21/2013 & rated 92 points: Cinnamon oak, lime, roasted nuts, very dry, complex, long. Impressive, but has fierce competition in Australia, especially at this price point. (1354 views)
 Tasted by chatters on 11/18/2013: Grandi Marchi Tasting (Dockside Balcony, Cocklebay, Sydney): medium minus aromas of herbs, meat, slight peach notes. On the palate the wine is textured and dry with mid and front of mouth phenolic grip…finishes with spice notes but lacks fruit. Meh (1903 views)
 Tasted by CamWheeler on 11/18/2013 & rated 88 points: Grandi Marchi Italian Tasting (Sydney, Australia): Oak, melon and grapefruit. The palate is restrained and has good length. (1905 views)
