Community Tasting Note

  • Milliontown wrote: 93 points

    April 16, 2022 - Looks incredibly fresh and youthful, both in appearance and aroma/taste. Light colour, still redolent with fresh lychee, pineapple, guava, the whole lovely spectrum of quality Sauv. With time, a definite sense of the “mineral”, ie. gunflint, slight petroleum note, some sulfidey reduction. Also a sort of herbaceous grassy note I’ve seen before in aged Sauvignon. Glassy feel on the palate, very delicate feeling, yet it has a definite impression from the oak and lees work in terms of texture - that’s more on the back palate. A delicious wine with all elements in total harmony. Didn’t quite reach the heights of complexity I hoped for given the price, but it’s very good nonetheless.
