Community Tasting Note

Monday, August 16, 2010 - Golden metallic, slight green hugh color. Nutty sherry, tropical fruit, toasted coconut, hazelnut butter nose. First taste, and you might quickly think OX....but after a couple sips, it's totally not! This is all about perfectly aged white wine...that shouldn't age...but did! Blind, you would go to Bordeaux. Only a White Bordeaux can age this well?? Well....another Kalin SHOCKER! This is all about rich and oily, little waxy, tropical/pit fruit.....very complexed with age, of toasted coconut, hazelnut butter, lemon honey, marzipan, grilled pineapple rosemary sprig skewer atop a green tea cake drizzled with lavender honey.....really! Plenty of lemon citrus acidity and minerals to give this wine some youth...and just enough sherriness for added complexity. Great wine, freakish again, from Kalin....probably just released a few short years ago!
