Community Tasting Note

rikipedia Likes this wine:

Sunday, January 23, 2022 - 66% SB; 22% Muscadelle; 12% Sem; Mid orange-gold to the rim, the aromas penetrate with ripe orange, grapefruit, lime cordial and elderflowers.
Fresh, bracing acidity on entry but texturally relatively smooth, almost glassy for a Sauvignon Blanc-led wine with flavours of clementine pith, sliced oranges on toast, yellow flowers, apricot and oatmeal with a hint of spicy oak. The barley orange sugar suggests Semillon, and the ripe mango note confirms it. There is some richness but also a phenolic grip on the finish. The finish seems quite tannic, oddly with a chalk aspect, yet there is a generosity to round out the medium finish. Showing quite a bit of development, the wine has peaked, and there is a little bit of honey creeping in.
