Community Tasting Notes 3

  • henrygjeffreys Likes this wine:

    April 9, 2024 - Creamy ripe nose, white peaches and vanilla,
    Saline and zingy on the palate, fresh, citrus fruit and then creamy and long.
    Lovely white burgundy-style wine with old fashioned burgundy acidity. Good now but think this will age superbly.

    December 30, 2023 - I recently discovered a very pleasant surprise in the form of a very good quality chardonnay from Essex. This wine is already drinking well but will benefit from keeping. On the nose, it has an inviting chardonnay aroma with only a touch of oak, not particularly buttery, rather straight in style. Also on the palate, it is straighter than buttery with good acidity and balance. I would expect this wine to become more complex over time. It has a good length in the finish and is certainly one of the better chardonnays from England. At 30 GBP per bottle, it is not cheap but worth it. I will buy a few more and age them.

  • JonathanFlavell Likes this wine:

    December 23, 2023 - Mid lemon colour, aromas of peach, lemon, lime, pear, shells, smoke & lemon peel. Decent body with a touch oily texture. Strong acidity. To taste lemon, lime, pear, green apple, wet stones, slate & smoke. Long. Outstanding. Super balance with intense flavours and lingering finish. Some complexity starting. Lovely but lots of time in hand.
