Community Tasting Note

fredb Likes this wine:

Saturday, August 20, 2011 - Bottle had lot code LLLHWY01395 laser etched onto it. Cork code V561. Medium yellow color; medium bead. Aromas of lemon, lime zest, green apple, bread dough, and flowers. Initially served a bit warm, this was all apple and bread with a coarse mousse. As it chilled a bit more, the citrus and floral elements emerged and joined the melee. Strong flavors kept up with strong flavors on the plate this was served with, but there wasn't a tremendous amount of harmony with the dish, so this bottle seemed to underperform relative to the past couple of experiences with this wine. The long, acidic finish leaves me believing that this wine is still on the upswing, but delivers good drinking (generally) now. Drink or hold.
