Community Tasting Notes 25

    June 15, 2021 - Like a Duracell battery this wine won't quit. It is now 13 years old and though some of the early floral notes are decreasing the wine is still a delight to drink. It is nicely balanced. I think the color might be darkening a bit but otherwise its fine. In terms of drinking pleasure per dollar spent this is one of my best.

    November 1, 2020 - This is one tough white wine. 12 years old it still tastes young. Good fruit, nice color. Still going strong.

    July 20, 2014 - Light green tinged yellow. White orchard fruit. Good mineral spine. Good acidity. Round white fruit with a lemony citrus dimension. I enjoyed but did not find it especially interesting. From my last note, almost two years ago, it seems the bottle has lost a step. Will continue to follow it.

    January 11, 2013 - Tasted Blind. I got a nose of buttered popcorn, although I must admit no one else backed my claim. Whatever it was, the nose was very interesting with a nice wet stone smell running though it as well. On the palate it was dry and I got lime, lemon, honeydew and something vegetal. Could have passed for a Sauvignon Blanc but I knew it wasn't that. In the end it was a Gruner Veltliner.
