Community Tasting Notes 2

  August 21, 2020 - #30-77. Corked (especially on the palate). More's the shame that this seemed to be in such great condition.

  April 6, 2017 - Salil does Chicago 3; 4/6/2017-4/8/2017 (Chicago, IL): #30-77. This was my second favourite of the three 1976 Abtsberg Auslesen that I opened. The nose on this showed much more honey and green herbs, and the palate is fairly rich, with some tart pineapple flavours, coupled with a bit of orange peel and caramel. The botrytis is quite present here, and the fat, sweet fruit feels much fresher than on the #13. But where as the #13 is in a slightly past its prime situation, this bottle is just right, though I'm not too optimistic on any more upside.
