Community Tasting Note

    May 17, 2015 - Really needs air, for the first hour it shows some nice ripe peach and berry fruit, but it's oddly soft and diffuse and lacking acid. Eventually though the wine fills out and firms up and acidity turns up, picking up all sorts of intense secondary nuances in the process, turning more citrusy and earthy and pine foresty and floral. This is a big, rich wine, but the extract is amazingly soft and silky, and the length is outstanding. GGs are a category of which I've been somewhat skeptical (I tend to prefer the pradikat wines), but this is a compelling example to the contrary.
