Community Tasting Note

Sunday, January 3, 2010 - It's probably not complimentary to say "extremely competent," but I thought this was simultaneously very good but not exceptional. Maybe more a function of my expectations than the wine (this was my first taste of a Bindi chard), although certainly possible that the vintage is in play here. This is a very well built chardonnay, perfect balance, just the right malo and oak. An interesting mix of old world style and new world fruit. Much to admire, but, for me at least, I guess it lacked the magic dust, that indefinable element that makes you sit up and say, wow. I guess I lack the vocabulary to accurately identify where between generic and unique this belongs. Somewhere right in the middle. Whatever the word for that might be.
