Community Tasting Note

• thewinelake Likes this wine: 92 points

  January 19, 2014 - Pale straw in colour. Subtle nose - maybe honeysuckle/jasmine floral notes.
  
  Then on the palate, I am picking up a slight taste of chicken (or is this my mind playing tricks on me?) . An intriguing texture - kind of silky and caressing (my tricky mind is now making me think of the sort of thing they like to show on adverts for Veet!). White fruit - apples, pears, grapes and more floral action. Also decent minerality. Just delicious, though. It's similar to the white Bordeaux that I guess it's designed to emulate, but packs quite a punch (albeit in a velvet glove).
  
  Just looking through other TN's I can agree with flint and ginger ale!
  
  The finish is longish. Maybe the weakest point of this wine, as it leaves a slight residue in the mouth. Still a classy wine, though. I'm not sure if there's any hurry to drink up.
  
  Very nice indeed... If you want a score, I suppose about 91 or so.
