Community Tasting Note

Tuesday, February 13, 2024 - This was the second bottle of this wine, and the previous wine (10.09.2023) was oxidized. Prematurely? That was the question then, and the answer is here: Yes, it was. This wine is much lighter in colour. There is no hint of apple core or the like. Rather, there is lanolin, some fresh and fruity citrus. Rather typical Chenin Blanc of moderate age. In the mouth the fruit is supple and fine, and the acidity is fresh and bracing, and not too domineering. In short, this is an excellent wine that shows up its brother as a deeply flawed individual. I do suspect that the producer has fallen for the 'low sulphur ideology.' That is a risk taken by the producer on behalf of the consumer, and thus despicable. For the future, I shall drink my Huëts much earlier and/or find alternative producers with a more palatable (pardon the pun) ideology.
