Community Tasting Note

Friday, April 8, 2011 - Here is a wine that we've had at many offlines, yet we've never popped one of our own. Tonight was the night as we dined with our good friends Tom and Denise. They were bringing their son Tommy's new pinot noir, so I wanted to bring a white so that his Russian River pinot noir was the star, and it was. This however was popped and poured at Drew's Bay Shore Bistro in Keyport, NJ, and well worth the wait! Gorgeous golden straw color in the glass, with just a tinge of green to it. On the nose, tons of citrus, ranging from lemon, lime, pear, pineapple, and melon with just a hint of spice. On the palate, the first thing I noticed was how creamy this was, with great acidity and balance. This is why I love Thomas Rivers Brown's wines! More of the same on the palate, with some elements of honey, and just a bit of spice. Overall, this wine was a rockstar, and extremely enjoyable! 92 points!
