Community Tasting Notes 9

    November 1, 2023 - Opens to orchard fruit, citrus, minerals, and fresh herbs. The palate displays nice brightness, freshness, and backbone, with a light prick that makes it come across as sassy. Picks up citrus pith on the long and refreshing finish. Nice.

    May 23, 2023 - I usually don’t like Californian Chardonnays available in Austria (too much power and oak for my taste), but this is a real nice, well balanced one, comes near to Burgundy style.

    April 13, 2023 - Was wanting to try this and was shocked it was on the menu. Great wine with a nice gold color. Butter, camomile, and pear. Very thick. Enjoyed it!

    June 8, 2022 - Some nutty ripe fruit to it. But with some acidity on the palate. A bit discombobulated as it were.

    May 17, 2022 - Begins with a strong citrus nose, primarily apricot and grapefruit before shifting to buttered bread and linen. When drank it first has a herbaceous flavor (undefined) before shifting to lemon curd and grapefruit. Very crisp and refreshing but not strong defined flavors.
