Community Tasting Note

Likes this wine:

Saturday, July 28, 2018 - Pacific Northwest Tasting (San Diego Wine Co.): 100% s/s fermentation, aged on lees for 4 mos

WAY too cold

N: CLOSED; Pears, poss apples?

P: LM body; Very RNDISH entry with NICE, almost swtish frt deftly balanced by a tangy acidity which controls the action into & through the LONG, tangy/swt (70:30) finish. For now & into EARLY '20, + MIGHT improve a bit through '18. 13.5% ABV; My VG+/EXC-. 91 pts & "Editors' Choice" WE @ $19, 89 Decanter, 87 WA, and Silver @ '18 S.F. Chronicle Wine Comp. [This vendor's $13.99 puts it in the top 15% of wine-searcher's listings.]
