Community Tasting Note

Saturday, August 28, 2021 - Lots of lemon notes along with white apple and some background white apricot notes. Nose is actually in a very odd stage right now; lots of gunpowder and petrol notes at first and even when those blow off, still feels very closed and concealed. Nearly medium bodied (8.5% ABV) with white apple upfront, broadening to white apricot and white peach through the middle. Tart white apple along with light acidity and mineral qualities and citrus notes on the back and through the finish. This wine still feels quite young to me. It doesn't have the acidity level I expected, but it's still quite closed and only after being open and warming for almost two hours did I get a beginning hint of the true fruit profile. I'll try some of the other 2017 soon and see if this is consistent across the vintage, or simply a statement on this particular vineyard in this vintage. Next bottle for me might be as late as Q1 2023. (30 cases produced)
