Community Tasting Note

  • acidqueen wrote: 92 points

    November 13, 2016 - Crisp, mineral, lemon with floral. Light yellow. Lots of acid and brightness but good flavors developing. Needs way more time but promising. Much better than the last AG review of 88 would indicate. And what is with that AG review? A year earlier this was 92-94 and now it is an 88. Why should I listen to anything he has to say about this? Despite his latest comments, this wine is certainly not "soft and easy going".

    11/13/16, 8:10 PM - My experience with Ceritas Chardonnay has shown that the same bottling can range from what you describe, to 'soft and easy' as AG wrote. Back in July, this bottling, for me, was more toward the AG description. Early on, the 2011 PMR Chardonnay was vibrant, complex, and showed great intensity. A recent check-in revealed it lacking in character.

    Perhaps these are going in and out of dumb phases. I'm definitely going to pay close attention to CT prior to opening my next bottles.
