Community Tasting Note

Saturday, February 28, 2015 - Consistent with my previous note, but amped by about 1.5 which puts this a nice place. Finished has tightened up and brings the acids the front doesn't. The Ricola notes are better integrated and the overall wine is quite nice. I might be reaching, but I am thinking that where this Xynisteri comes from is making this wine more Ayios Andronicos than varietal Xynisteri. Time reveals a more subtle and somewhat chimeric wine. That is a really good thing.

My previous note from 12/2104:
(Gassy from bottling) Not much nose. Slightly bitter notes with some grass and herbals. Soft but long finish with good mountain herbal notes (the good side of Ricola) and a little bite.

This is one of the most intriguing whites in Cyprus.
