Community Tasting Notes 6

  April 1, 2017 - Industrial notes mixed with apple and citrus. Higher acidity. Had fun with this next to a couple of ~10 year old Austrian Rieslings... rooted for the home team, but there was really no comparison between the broad spectrum of flavors in the Austrians (especially higher notes) versus this wine with a much more narrow band.

  June 25, 2015 - Considering it comes from Belle Pente, this is a solid alternative to their PNs when the food dictates. The petrol nose is overpowering in a good way with ample flavors of peach and beeswax. This is complemented with a great acidic backbone that I would feel comfortable in saying check back in 2-3 years if not more.

  January 24, 2015 - Vin Tasting: Pale straw color. Major petrol with stone fruit on the nose. Bone dry, high acidity, moderate+ finish. Refreshing, lovely, crispy Riesling.

  May 27, 2014 - Some petrol and minerals on the nose. Tight and compact, very malic (green apples) to the point of being a bit unbalanced to my palate, limestone.
