Community Tasting Note

Tuesday, August 29, 2023 - After having a flawed bottle about a week ago, this had to be given another try.

Clear, medium lemon colour. In the nose, there is a very slight toastiness present, with some yellow plum, ripe bruised fruits and nuttiness. On the palate, the wine is dry and has nice acidity that slowly builds up on your gums. The aromas from the nose are repeated, along with a creamy, almost waxy texture and some salinity. The aftertaste is surprisingly fresh with ripe citrus, nutty aromas, dried herbs and flowers and just a tiny touch of oak.

Overall, this feels quite stylish and very much Musar-like. Obviously it is still very young, and you do get the sense that there is potential for lots of added complexity when aged for a few years. On it's own, the wine feels slightly awkward in it's current phase, and would maybe work better if paired with food. However, it will most certainly show it's true colours only after some more bottle age, as with white Musars in general. Looking forward to trying this again in the future. Superb stuff!
