Community Tasting Note

  • Basil Ganglia wrote:

    January 26, 2014 - Have consumed both chilled and at room temperature. Very bright taste, citrus (mostly tangerine and orange), with some melon and stone fruit, and a bit of floral and grass notes. Very nice complexity; it's not just that the notes are present, but there is depth underlying them as well. Tart, but no phenolic bitterness. Very good match with Chinese take-out.

    Equally enjoyable, if not more so, unchilled. At room temperature the subtlety of the flavors is fully apparent.It stays crisp and sharp; even after three hours opened no signs of flabbiness or phenolics.

    I found this to be an extremely well done SB; rated excellent (87-89). That ties for the highest rating I have ever given to a wine. At less than $13/bottle (including shipping and handling that this was offered at wine.woot) this is a crazy good QPR and an autobuy if it reappears
