2/9/2024 - Echinosum wrote: flawedI'll be kind and call it flawed. It was on the edge between drink and chuck, and in the end I drank it. The main problem is it was a bit maderised, or more than a bit. There's a risk that was a feature rather than a bug, though deliberate maderisation is unusual in sweet wines that are only 11.5% alcohol. Behind the maderisation, there was a reminiscence of the delicious tamaioasa you could, for a while, get for about £2 in a British supermarket in the 1980s, when communist Romania was desperate for hard currency. |

3/3/2016 - DTOK90 Likes this wine: NROrchard and tropical fruits, lightly off dry. Balanced with crisp acidity. A floral note is present also. Honey, acacia, green apple, pineapple, and honey co-mingle with numerous other flavours and aromas. A rare varietal, try it for sure if you like lightly off dry whites. |

2011 Cotnari Grasă de Cotnarimore |
2/2/2015 - huse wrote: 83 pointsA rare Romanian semi-sweet wine, made from the ‘Grasă de Cotnari’ grape varietal (in Hungary’s Tokaj region also known as ‘Kövérszőlő’). Pale straw-yellow in color with some golden reflections. Rather shy nose of pineapple, dried apricot and a hint of honey. Nice pear and melon fruit on the medium-bodied palate, but the wine is lacking in concentration and acidity. Slightly honeyed finish. |

10/3/2014 - LopedeAguirre Does not like this wine: 83 pointsDifferent from previous Cotnaris bought in Romania and cellared, this has balance but is a bit watery. Complexity for sure, pineapple, etc., but does not deliver much excitement. |

1/4/2012 - Man in Black wrote: NRYellow gold with straw reflections. Simple and sweet nose with pear, peach and syrup aromas. Short in the mouth, it shows a moderate sweetness and a very present acidity, it tastes pretty similar as it smells, peach, pear and syrup again. Medium duration aftertaste of low intensity, peach again. |

On the mouth is is heaven concentrated fruit with perfect balance, butter, tropical fruits. I thought this wine was downhill but evidently this bottle represents an extraordinary achievement in Cotnari wine making. How much longer will it last? |
