Community Tasting Note

Wednesday, September 18, 2013 - Well, I had intended to keep this in the cellar for a year or two to see how, if at all, NY Rkatsiteli would develop. But, you know how it happens - the right meal doesn't present itself, then the bottle gets shoved to the back, and here we are 7 years later. So. Would you have guessed Premier Cru Chablis? Me neither, but this was the spitting image - lemon curd, apple, thyme and other herbs, bracing acidity. Maybe a little lost in the mid-palate, but c'mon - 7 year old Rkatsiteli! Worth saving? I'm not going to hold a bin in my cellar for more, but it certainly evolved in a positive way. I see you out there in cellartracker-land: 55 more bottles in cellars. You could do worse than to pull yours now. (I mean, no one has a case of this, do they?)
