Community Tasting Note

  • Jan J Likes this wine:

    February 23, 2021 - Richer nose than its Kabinett counterpart. A wave of struck match, honey, Cantaloupe melon, raw sugar, minerals, ripe peaches, red apples, and verging on the tropical at the tail end with bananas and passion fruit. In the mouth, the wine is round and has a great, juicy, core of fruit, but also structure, minerality, and acidity to keep it together. Already approachable thanks to the charming 2016 vintage, this can definitely benefit from further aging and gain more complexity, but it's hard to keep the hands off it now.

    3/1/21, 2:38 PM - I find 16's and 17's closed. 15' still open in some cases. Some more than others. My friend who interns at Willi Schaefer agreed and told me to forget about it for the next 10 years
