Community Tasting Note

  • TheBusiness724 wrote: 93 points

    August 26, 2011 - Solid golden color. The powerful nose nearly assaults you with a barrage of nuts, ginger, lemon and just a general richness that seems just barely...oaky. Can that possibly be right? Unexpected, but ever so slight and not unpleasant. Then, on the palate, medium-to-full bodied with an initial waxy fruitiness that is quickly subsumed by a saline minerality as the prominent note. Seashells come to mind. Underneath that there is a racy, herb-infused acidity balancing the richness. At this young age it is perhaps a touch heavier than I have come to expect from Ganevat, but not lacking for interest, depth or potential.
