Community Tasting Note

  June 11, 2009 - Tasting Group Dinner - Chateauneuf at Heidi's (Heidi's & Our House, Minneapolis): Quite cheesy and musty upon opening, so much so that we thought the bottle was probably corked. After a few minutes, the funk dissipated, and what was underneath was still lively and structured, though fully mature. Apricots, petrol, sea shells, and apples; the nose reminded me of mature Riesling. Nutty and intense flavors, with quite a bit of dry botrytis on the long finish. Interesting and definitely worth the $20 that Dave found this for on Winebid.
