Community Tasting Note

Sunday, October 20, 2013 - From 75cl screwcap. Very pale indeed. The reticent, slightly grassy nose gives no hint of the concentration and power of the entry. PAZAM!!! Knife edge acidity balances a massive mouth-full of ripe green gooseberry and ripe yellow grapefruit (the peaches noted by Richard Jennings on 16.05.2013 didn't make it into my bottle) which runs clear – super-clean spring-water clear – through to the slightly mouthpuckering, whistle-clean acidic finish. A suprising degree of resonant after-taste for a wine at this price-level. Real class, and a joy to drink right now. 91P
