Community Tasting Note

Sunday, October 25, 2020 - A slightly unusual white bordeaux. On the nose there are sweet fruits: lychees, maybe a hint of mandarin oranges. On the palate a stlightly odd mixture of off-dry fruit fading to a slightly minerally acidic bite and a slightly cloying finish.

Whilst not unpleasant, for me this is a rather unstructured wine - like a blend of two wine each of which might be rather nice on their own but which don't really seem to meld together well.

And, I guess paying a premium for the name, this is really not great value at ~US$26.
