Community Tasting Note

WindFlyer Likes this wine:

Thursday, March 14, 2024 - pale straw colour and very fine bubbles. white pear, very fresh pineapple, and lemony zest aromas are infused with a subtle layer of just-baked croissant with sliced almonds on top. dry and full on the entry, this wine unfolds in crisp layers of interleaved orchard and citric fruit permeated with autolytic flavours. floral notes and a hint of marzipan come thru on the very long finish.

while very well balanced, it shows a bit of the ripeness of the late-season heat spike… this should fold into the acidity with a bit more time and drink spectacularly well. upside potential here.

13.2% AbV; dosage 7.5g/L; 52% Chardonnay/ 46% Pinot Noir/ 2% Pinot Meunier; 4.9% reserve wine from 2012; five years on the lees.
