Community Tasting Notes 9

  March 21, 2020 - So it was an ‘11 and it was compromised of some sort. No seepage on the cork, but a touch of”mold”on the bottom third(inside bottle side) . By way of the nose couldn’t really tell it was off since it was throwing some petrol notes,although a bit muted. On the palate though it verified that it was past due or tainted. Color was a golden yellow and the acidity was gone on the palate too.

  July 22, 2015 - Surprisingly pungent and unforgiving explosiveness. This one doesn't back down, being the most bone-dry Riesling I've had yet. Sour oranges and potent citrus kiss the tongue, and a nose of vinyl and petrol make this a mind-blowing, thoughtful wine.
  
  Tasted with winemaker Chris Williams on 3 separate occasions, each time confirming just how great this wine is!
