Community Tasting Note

Sunday, March 12, 2017 - Crabby Party (Pine Close): Tasted blind.
Appearance is clear, pale intensity, chrysanthmum yellow colour. Legs. Fine bit of spritz.
Nose is clean, medium+ intensity, with aromas of stony minerality, funky briny sea-salt, citrus lemon. Fleeting hint of something floral. Developing.
On the palate, dry, medium+ acidity, medium- alcohol (12%), medium body. Medium+ flavour intensity, with flavours of salty minerality, wet stones minerality, citrus lemon. Long finish.
Good quality. I was guessing a Chardonnay white burgundy, but somehow lacking fruit expressiveness. Well, can't expect too much fruit out of Aligote right?
This wine feels piece-meal at this point in time. Give this another year or two to develop and it should be better. Long finish is a good sign too.
