Community Tasting Notes 2

  July 18, 2020 - 13% alcohol. Tasted half blind.
  
  Medium-deep lemon yellow color. Characterful, somewhat developed and slightly toasty nose with aromas of exotic spices, some pineapple, a little bit of chopped nuts, light ripe notes of overripe red apple, a hint of dried herbs and a touch of quince. The wine is lively, fresh and medium-bodied on the palate with a taste that feels much more youthful than the nose. Flavors of spicy red apples, some slivered almonds, light lemony citrus fruit tones, a little bit of dried herbs, hints of white peach and sweeter exotic fruits and a touch of apple peel bitterness. The bright acidity lends a wonderfully fresh and crunchy quality to the wine. The finish is lively, fresh and quite long with flavors of tangy salinity, lemony citrus fruits, a little bit of tart green apple, light bitter notes of apple peel, a hint of stony minerality and a nutty touch of slivered almonds.
  
  Contrasting the normal style of Croatian whites, which is often quite ripe, sweet-toned in fruit and occasionally quite weighty in body, this is a remarkably fresh, precise and poised effort for a Croatian white wine. At first it feels like a pleasant but rather simple and straightforward little sipper, but at some point you realize the wine is surprisingly nuanced in taste, ranging from fresh fruits to more exotic tones to curious notes of dried herbs to nuttiness. A very positive effort; punches above its weight at approx. 15€.
