Community Tasting Notes 4

  September 22, 2022 - Slightly abrasive at first, but quickly mellowing: moderate acidity, gaining weight as it warms, and offering a complex array of flavors -- quince, caramel, ginger, sage, slate. Every mouthful seemed to offer new flavors. My mother-in-law though it was slightly sweet -- I didn't think so. The alcohol, though, does become more intrusive as the wine warms, so I would recommend keeping it chilled. Fully drinkable now.

  November 30, 2021 - Nice tropical flavors, transitioning to herbal notes. Alcohol was apparent mid-palate on the transition. Strong acid profile kept the finish tart.

  November 21, 2021 - If you like GV, you have to smell and taste this wine ... Very complex aromatically with chicken stock, lentils, white chocolate and some florals (which sound like a horrible combo, but works!) Mid-weight palate with medium acidity and surprisingly low alcohol. Everything in its place for a nice, slow evolution. Would be perfect with Vietnamese take-out or a slow-cooked chicken/mushroom braise of some kind. This is worth seeking out, and a level above any GV I've had in a while.

  February 15, 2021 - Love the buttery pepper note and the minerality is off the charts. It's like u can taste the soil.
