Community Tasting Notes 7

• Seth Rosenberg wrote: 88 points

  February 17, 2024 - Day 2: light yellow color. Nose shows golden and minerals with peach pit, apple skins, slate and stones with a significant salty note. This has matured quickly and lost most of its youthful exuberance that I loved so much. Palate shows that pretty combination of the peach pits with some apple skin and lots of stony minerality that carry into the finish - lots of apple skin and minerals on the finish but it’s a little diffuse and bitter. I’ll know to drink these within the first 6-12 months or so to catch them young. Nose - 4.5-5/6, Palate - 4.5/6, Finish - 4/6, Je ne Sais Quoi - 1/2 = 14-14.5/20.

  January 12, 2022 - No formal notes.
  
  Shows riesling character with really fresh tart lemon-lime, mineral, apple, floral notes. Weightless and elevated acidity, dry. Great accompaniment for homemade avgolemono soup.
  
  Good from pop and pour but maybe fleshing out with air and as it warms up. No rush but doesn't need to be held.

  October 29, 2021 - Got my Fall Goodfellow shipment yesterday and had to crack one of these today. This is just lovely. For me the nose is the best - potent and mouth-watering aromas of peach, red and green apple, a little banana and tropicals, brown and baking spices, lime, minerals. The palate shows more tart with lime and minerals and spices up front - very juicy and also somewhat steely. The other fruits are more in the background. I tend to like wines like this more in the feinherb style, and I do wonder how it would be with 10 g/l more RS, but this is really wonderful for what it is. You know how sometimes you anticipate what a wine will be like and it's just what you were hoping for? That's what this is. Nose - 5/6, Palate - 4.5/6, Finish - 4.5/6, Je ne Sais Quoi - 1.5/2 = 15.5/20.
