Community Tasting Notes 17

  • atbarbar wrote: flawed

    August 31, 2020 - flawed. Corked. Other users have found the same problem. It is a pity, very dry and mineral with lots of pleasant acidity.
    The wine looks blonde colored. It smells like grapefruit. The body is light/medium. The wine has angular texture. The wine finishes medium. The wine has high acidity.

    June 27, 2020 - Mid gold. Clean and bright. Medium body. Citrus, lime and mineral edge. Medium length. Touch of white floraliity. Dry.

  • honest bob wrote: flawed

    October 2, 2019 - From 75cl, spongey cork. Just drinkable, but dark yellow and obvious signs of premox. That makes 3 out of 12 defective bottles for my investment in this vintage. Not acceptable. Time to start using screwcaps, change cork supplier or reduce retail price by 25%?

    September 15, 2019 - Dop 10 anni in cantina ancora un grande freschezza e bella struttura ampio naso e finale lunghissimo.

    August 3, 2019 - From 75cl, perfect cork. Another beautiful bottle of this bone-dry, vibrant, poised Riesling, as previously noted. 91P
