Community Tasting Notes 6

  January 3, 2021 - A bit deeper color; nose shows good development, sharp edges have rounded out, sharp green pepper has turned into a more herbal almost stewed green quality, grapefruit a deeper and sweeter more orange quality, stone fruit emerging with apricot, and a slight green tea and honeyed quality to fruit showing age, on the palate the acids are still strong but have a lactic quality reminiscent of almost Chenin, nice mineral component; a very interesting point in its development, like it more than I did previously and can see this going longer but the idiosyncratic nature begs for proper food pairing- the langoustine pasta was good not great with it.

  October 19, 2019 - Still good, but definitely at the end. Not quite as acidic as it once was but v drinkable.

  August 20, 2017 - Wine at the Lake (Lake Lanier, GA): This really surprised me, the wine seems to have lost all of its sweet, youthful fruit and turned quite lean, chalk dust, gooseberry, and pomello pith, on the palate it quickly turns into jalapeno, still a great mid; ok but I had trouble getting past some flavors that I don't love.

  October 28, 2016 - Beau Sancerre pas trop vif avec une minéralisée présente. Sur les agrumes et le pamplemousse. Agréable à boire et accompagne bien les poissons a chair blanche.
