Community Tasting Note

Thursday, June 14, 2018 - "White wine is fucking awesome" (Chicago, IL): Served double blind. The nose here was exceedingly floral, and at first, I didn't pick up the lychee tone, so I thought it was some post-modern hipster stuff, thanks to all that floral hand lotion going on. Then I stuck my nose in the glass again and the telltale lychee showed up. You could guess this was gewurztraminer on the nose alone. The palate is racy and shows a lean minerality, which is all the more impressive given how terrible the grape generally is. That led me to the one producer of Alsatian wine that could manage that: Trimbach.
