| Community Tasting Notes (average 89.5 pts. and median of 89 pts. in 3 notes) - hiding notes with no text | | | Tasted by YWG Wine Guy on 8/11/2014 & rated 89 points: 25$ @ Deluca - nice expression, meets my own QPR for whole package. The first tasting note is long, and along the same lines for me. Nose is a little light, don't appreciate much complexity other than some citrus/pear/minerality? Palate is on the richer side - med+ bodied, light+ acid, and with more fruit complexity along the lines of yes, pear/pineapple and there is that faint background of petrol or flinty metal? To be clear, this is a tasty experience and one i would try again and recommend this for perhaps a tasting of Chenin Blancs...

Just that it seemed to do better than the Pecan Stream Chenin Blanc from South Africa we had had recently as well (1250 views) | | | Tasted by ErikMercier on 1/28/2014 & rated 90 points: Once again I am surprised by a SA wine. Very elegant and stylish.
Clear, pale lemon in the glass with a tinge of green. The nose is bright with hints of green apple and candied lime peel. There's a slight petrol note but not entirely the same flint or wet wool quality it's french counterpart would have. Tons of minerality.
The palate is fresh and weighted simultaneously - almost like lemon custard. Riper fruit come across here like pineapple and peach - certainly not in an artificial way. Tremendous length, prickly acid, all around a well balanced wine.
I'm going to go out on a limb and say that this wine will actually improve over the next couple years. (1663 views) |
