Community Tasting Note

srh Likes this wine:

Saturday, September 14, 2019 - Winebar [2 Rosés, 2 Whts, & 8 Reds] from 09/13/19 + 8 Shared Bottles (Vintage Wines Ltd., San Diego, CA): A wine I seem to ALWAYS love! :) THANK you for sharing it, Dr. Tom! :)

- Blanc de Blancs (100% Chardonnay) Grand Cru
- Harvest 2014 with 90%, 5% harvest 2013 and 5% harvest 2010
- Bottling: April 2015, minimum 3 years of aging in cellar
- Disgorging in 2018 as BRUT ( sugar dosage 9 g/l)

N: LOVELY bread dough with distinct notes of lemons & something I can't quite ID: poss vanilla?

P: MF body; INIT RNDISH entry with NICE, almost swtish frt QUICKLY met by ALMOST puckerish acidity which fairly seamlessly morphs into a LONG, very, VERY slightly puckerish finish with HINTS of swtness. A *decidely* FOOD friendly style that should be MARVELOUS @ the table! 12.5% ABV; My EXC/EXC+, but one HAS to *love* acidity, I suspect.

Note: Also tasted on 11/24/18 & 6/29/19
