Community Tasting Note

• Genghis88 Likes this wine: 89 points

  April 15, 2021 - Opened and consumed over five hours.
  Pale golden yellow.
  Initially a funky nose, that blew off after some time. (this wine could have used a decanting) Quince, wet hay, some citrus notes off the nose.
  Rounder with a nice acidity, and hints of sweetness. Some canned pineapple notes. Some light smoky notes. Medium finish, but faded.
  This wine drank best at a more ambient room temperature. Don't consume too cold, and decant this bottle for an optimum drinking experience. This wine could get better with some ageing.

  4/18/21, 6:27 AM - Thank you for you comment on my note.
  I found your note very insightful especially regarding the temperature/decanting recommendations (I started from cold and consumed slowly to give it time to warm up in the glass/bottle - and witnessed the exact same change). Also I’m curious to try aged version of this (in my experience similarly styled Poully Fuisse aged beautifully). Regarding broader regional/climate context I have to study/think more (or have to stop thinking and just enjoy wine)... Cheers!

  4/18/21, 7:15 AM - I am trying to be more disciplined with decanting my whites (or at least letting the bottle breathe for an hour) before consuming. I find that most wines have an ideal drinking temperature that needs to be determined. Surprised at how that range can affect a bottle so much.
