Community Tasting Notes 5

  April 7, 2024 - Much better than the bottle I had last month. Still holding on to a bit of sweet fruit, with loads of grippy acidity and minerality. Lengthy and lingering.

  March 9, 2024 - Might have waited too long for this one. Perfect cork for a 25 year old wine; looks brand new. Deep golden in color. Quite dry and austere; some petrol notes, but lacking fruit.

  January 24, 2010 - outstanding. pale gold. Utterly beguliling nose of crushed stone, mixed with lemon curds, hints of vanilla and chalk, very expressive. Medium wight palate, complex flavors, mineral driven with great balance, drinking wonderfully, very persistent, and I mean LONG, finish.

  September 21, 2008 - outstanding wine, drinking perfectly right now. Has strong aromatics of the vineyards, with a good core of lemon fruit, but the wine is all about minerals now. Lithe, harmonious acids, long, long, stony finish. Really lovely.
