Community Tasting Notes 5

    July 10, 2018 - {375ml, cork, 7.5%, AP 37 02} Much better than the last bottle. Still fully mature; there's little botrytis evident, instead it has a honeyed richness, fading somewhat, not much beyond off-dry quite honestly, and rather simple. Mostly, the finish disappears very fast. It's still pleasant while it lasts but not worth seeking out. You wouldn't convince anyone of the merits of cellaring riesling on the basis of this.

    March 27, 2018 - From 37,5 cl bottle. Classic wine, honey, minerals, sheer elegance, will go on, for now went well with truffel brie.

    November 25, 2016 - {cork, 7.5%, AP 37 02} Very dark yellow. Too dark. Pleasant, lightly sherried aroma of honey and nuts. Slightly candied. The palate is clearly oxidised; not too badly to kill the flavours, which are just off-dry and a bit caramelised but rather simple, but certainly enough to kill the finish, which is now desperately short. A disappointment, but is it typical? One bottle left; I'm not hopeful...

    November 16, 2013 - mid gold.gorgeous sweet pineapple petrol nose. Lovely weave. Fat and rich and complex but could just do with more attck and life. A little heavy but lovely wine.

    September 22, 2012 - Rich and coconut-y with fresh apple juice notes and a good dollop of brown spices. Give this a little air before drinking. Tough to say whether this will improve; it needs the acid it has now which has a welcome grapefruit quality.
