Community Tasting Note

  • SimonHea Likes this wine: 85 points

    June 1, 2019 - Pale Lemon
    Medium intensity
    Lemon, lime, lime zest, lime cordial, green apple, emerging light petrol notes showing as Vaseline
    Dry, high acidity
    Medium (-) alcohol, medium (-) body
    Medium intensity, medium finish
    Flavours as aromas

    A good wine showing balance between quality fruit and high acidity, the light petrol notes show good varietal typicity. Clearly well made but lacks depth and complexity. The wine has quite simple flavours with little intensity and the finish fades quite quickly.

    Drink now, not suitable for keeping. Whilst the acidity is high there is insufficient depth of fruit to develop in an interesting way and I fear the fruit would simply fade.

    8/10/20, 2:00 AM - I have been drinking TA Riesling for 3 decades and have always found that it shows its true quality with time. I have not had an example that did not improve and develop attractive complexity over 2 decades plus. Trouble is, you have to believe in it and keep it for that long to check out my recommendation!
