Community Tasting Notes 6

  August 15, 2010 - Yellow and nearly oxidized in appearance, with an unctuous quality in the glass. The nose is consistent, but with a hint of green apple.The wine simply plods on the palate, and the weight of the fruit betrays the underlying green citrus flavor. Better with fish, but a disappointment. Maybe if I'd had oysters....

  August 11, 2010 - Clear light yellow. slightly sweet nutty nose, floral with a bit of citrus fruit. Light lemon and stone flavours. Very dry finish. In the end a bit light on fruit.

  August 28, 2009 - Nice citrus nose followed by somewhat austere minerally finish. This wine has a lot of backbone, seems to have lots of life left at this time. Not really pleasant on its own, however really came alive when paired with seafood course. Very enjoyable with food.

  January 31, 2009 - Muted nose, I thought. Citrus, subtle floral nuance and a little oak. On the palate it's elegant with more herbal, cheesy and floral tastes alongside the zippy citrus flavours. A few complexities added by the oak too. Good minerality. Must confess I paired this with shallow fried breadcrumbed chicken and it was a little overawed but then when on its own it began to show better. Would be good with fish I think. 12 degrees celcius and up.

  July 21, 2008 - Lovely nose of minerals and citrus. Tastes like what perfume smells like. Unusual, but very enjoyable finish.
