Community Tasting History

Community Tasting Notes (average 90.6 pts. and median of 90 pts. in 5 notes) - hiding notes with no text

 Tasted by olracx62 on 9/28/2018 & rated 90 points: complex Chardonnay resembling to Pouilly Fuisse. Orchard, candies and a touch of vanilla. Time has enriched taste and nose. In a fresh night and afternoon at Chiavari at the very end of summer (393 views)
 Tasted by pavel_p on 8/1/2015 & rated 92 points: Moved from the 16C wine cellar to the freezer for 2h and took to a picnic. Best showing of this wine yet. A nose with brioche, flower and white fruit, on the palate this has only a touch of oiliness and honey (but less than for example the 06 Fevre Chablis Grand Cru Les Clos a fortnight ago), citrus keeping things in a great balance, white fruit, medium to long finish. Excellent and great QPR at the $30 or so I paid. (1416 views)
 Tasted by pavel_p on 7/16/2015 & rated 90 points: Drank at home with chicken wings. Did not get the olive notes like last time. Dense texture on the palate, slightly oily and sweet but a good match with the meal. Some swirling brings out some fresher lemon notes on the nose, otherwise plenty of honey Mellon and white fruit, some oak and nuts. Nice (1276 views)
 Tasted by olracx62 on 6/6/2015 & rated 91 points: Tasted at a free winetasting of the winemaker at Radrizzani's in Milan. Complex and fat chardonnay with hints of vanilla and butter. Great (840 views)
 Tasted by pavel_p on 4/11/2015 & rated 90 points: Italian wine tasting at local retailer: Slightly oily texture without being too fat or sweet, interesting note of something like green olives, or rather the liquid from pickled green olives. Dry. l liked this and bought a few bottles. (1870 views)
