Community Tasting Notes 5

November 4, 2020 - Tasted blind. Outrageous acidity. This wine would have been pale lemon in colour at some time. Now light copper. Lively, unctuous but kept firmly in check by its acidity. Complex and with a longish finish. Like licking stainless steel covered in lemon juice. So memorable.

August 21, 2020 - This was quite popular at the table. Aged aromas but without oxidation. Bee wax, some nuts, petrol, ginger. Unctuous, very different than a German GG but lovely pairing with the clams.

July 13, 2014 - Way past drinking window. Deep amber. Fruit still there (honey, whiff of botrytis). Acidity falling off. Hard to distinguish as a Riesling.

June 5, 2005 - OL At panos and Edith (Strasbourg): Good viscosity and a great palette of aromas from a very expressive nose. Honey, cinnamon, pain d'epices, minerality and petrol. In the mouth it is very well balanced with a good level of acidity and a long finish in which I found a hint of bitterness.

June 5, 2005 - A selection of Weinbach wines with Laurence Faller (Strasbourg, France): Quinces on the nose with hints of petrol, off-dry for me with good underlying acidity.
