Community Tasting Note

Friday, November 9, 2007 - Huet fete part III: Schildknecht comes to town. (Dougherty's.): My seventh or eighth bottle of this and probably the best one I've had, though one tasted a few months ago also showed very well. There's been a lot of variation in the bottles I've had and Dougherty believes that it's probably a loose cork problem as the good bottles we've had have been so fresh that it's doubtful the wine is in decline. It's a deep yellow color and though it shows mature characteristics, there's still a certain freshness and vibrancy to the wine. It has a soft mousse, though this one is more vibrant than all others I've had, with desiccated stone fruits, walnuts, honey comb and faint citrus flavors. It's a bit fresher on the palate than the nose would suggest and it picks up a nice appley note on the finish. A-.
