Community Tasting Notes 10

  June 15, 2021 - Consumed over three days refrigerated with a layer of argon between sessions. Opened up steadily suggesting a much longer cellaring potential than other commenters recommended. Dry and creamy mouth-filling grapefruit with herbal and mineral aromas and flavors. Delicious. Second bottle open for a week in the fridge with no argon and improved steadily. Nose became more complex and alluring. Increased score 1 point.

  November 14, 2019 - Pale gold; crystalline, undertow of petroleum, lemon twist with wet stones; poised, thirst quenching, dry with exquisite ripeness; penetrating finish. At its peak, just signs of flattening out & so best to drink soon.

  November 10, 2017 - Color transparente amarillento, poco evolucionado.
  Nariz riesling, un toque dulce.
  En boca es pura redondez, un toque dulce que sorprende con la añada tan fría, serán los años en botella. Ha perdido esa punzada inicial pero ha ganado en amplitud, redondez, matices...
  Brutal, muy bueno.

  October 16, 2016 - Tasted it blind. Very pale straw, initially not giving much away and certainly not expressive but with a shake it gave green notes such as herbs, gooseberry, lemon rind and grass. Enjoyed this wine but missed the Riesling characteristics.

  February 3, 2016 - A small RIesling blind tasting (Oinoscent): The nose is clean, med intensity, lime, pear, some plastic/petrol notes, a few stalk-y nuances but all and all fresh and a bit unsettled still.
  In the palate, the wine is dry, with med to high acidity, med+ body and high intensity, underripe fruit notes of pear, pineapple and green apple, med to long finish. It feels so fresh now, needs food.
  Very good quality, drink...later
