Community Tasting Note

Friday, August 26, 2022 - A really lovely nose here: wide open, bright and nuanced. It is quite zesty with notes of green apple, ginger, lees, iodine, chalk and a hint of torrefaction. The fine mousse is absolutely mouth-caressing and fairly persistent. The dosage seems to be on the friendly side for sure but there is fine acidity and again things get pleasantly zesty and dry towards the finish. There are some spicy and toasty notes on the palate but at the same time it is youthfully fruity and lively. It not incredibly complex this comes off as refined and classy. While slightly sweetish by modern standards it is impeccably balanced and immensely enjoyable. There is a sense of weightlessness which I find very admirable. The flavor profile is not perhaps as exotic as one might expect considering the amount of Meunier, the Chardonnay feels to dominate to some degree which is by no means a negative. A fine wine without a doubt - I’ll take the slight sweetness any day over the too austere, under dosaged grower wines.
