Community Tasting Note

Thursday, August 25, 2022 - Tasted again--see my notes of January 20 2022 and May 6 2020. Intensely mineral, with oranges, not quite ripe melon, turnips, cooked leafy greens, sweet scallops, freshly baked bread. Almost endless and constantly changing aftertaste. Some wax in the texture. Utterly dry. There's something in there that vaguely resembles faint oxidation, but my guess is that it's really something else--was there perhaps prolonged lees contact? This is an amazing wine, if you're able to be open to it for the strange thing it is. No hurry at all, but also no reason to wait. [I've now confirmed that there was indeed prolonged contact with the lees.]
