Community Tasting Note

Wednesday, April 28, 2010 - The color is a dark gold, almost amber. First time drinking one of these and it's quite the experience. While chilled, the emphasis is on the minerals, lemon and apple. With a bit of warmth and air, however, this changes quickly, showing honey, canned pears, peach, spices and other interesting notes I can't quite nail down. This seems to have some of the botrytis-driven complexity of a good Sauternes, but without the residual sugar. The finish lingers for quite awhile. If you're looking for a crisp, clean, refreshing white, this probably isn't the best place to turn. And you can detect the smallest bit of heat on the finish if you're really looking for a flaw. But if you find the right occasion for it, this is fantastic and one of the more interesting dry whites I have had.
