Community Tasting Notes 2

  • benjaminpaul wrote: 91 points

    June 6, 2019 - Nose of faint elderflower, ripe peach, rich honeysuckle, squeezed ripe nectarine, some granny smith apple, feijoa candy, mango skin, lychee and gooseberry. Palate is subtle, butter first, fruit second. Introducing lemon, pineapple, apricot and some sweet sultana, snow pea, basil with a nutty finish.

    This is beautifully made and textural especially with presenting the butter first, usually the last on most wines. An incredible example of Marlborough Chardonnay. Safe to hang on to for another 3-4 years.

    May 15, 2018 - A Biodynamic Bonanza (P&V wine & liquor, Enmore Road, Newtown): Touch of gamey wild ferment, struck match, lemon a little lees and a little butter to go with it. In the mouth it's juicy, fruit is a little muted under more dominant cream, butter and sweet spice.
