Community Tasting Note

Tuesday, February 4, 2014 - Medium high viscosity. Straw yellow with gold in the centre.
After decanting, it exhibited lily, sweet white roses, under-ripe waxy white peach, chopped pear, subtle scent of grapefruit and lime rind with gentle undertone of funk and stone mineral. A nuance of butter scotch after an hour. On the palate, beautifully integrated green apple, ripe pear, key lime, and intense mineral takes you to one minute linger with concentrated ripe lemon acidity. It is more focused, leaner, subtly nuanced, elegant, and less intense Silex compared to '07 vintage. It paired nicely with caramelized scallop but greatly with steamed dungeness crab with drawn lemon garlic butter sauce and yuzu lime wasabi soy sauce. It is approaching the end of its drinking window. Drink up!!
