Community Tasting Notes 26

  January 11, 2019 - Theme was brown bag, blind. Straw gold. Complex nose, some citrus, pears, spice. Slightly round palate, oak, if any, was subtle. Smooth and resolved. Long finish. Guesses were all over the place, finally someone guessed Albariño. This was quite good, and well within the drinking window (CT window ended in 2017. My observation is, except for things like Bordeaux, they are generally too short.)

  February 26, 2018 - WSET Level 2 - Day 3 (Pialligo Estate, Canberra, ACT, Australia): The appearance is clear and pale lemon in colour (almost gold). Tears are visible.
  
  The nose is unclean (TCA; damp cardboard) with a pronounced intensity. There are subdued aromas of green fruit (very subtle nashi pear) and oak (very subtle vanilla, very subtle toast). The wine is faulty.

  May 8, 2016 - A very rich style of Rias. Lemon butter, honey, beeswax, some sea rockpool, peach; apricot juice, honey, spicey back palate, full and round. Annoying that it wasn't to type, but an enjoyable wine nevertheless

  August 4, 2015 - Consistent with previous note. A bit of lemon & light flowers. Beautiful balance. Nice acidity.
