Community Tasting Notes 10

  • SonomaWilliam wrote: 91 points

    May 20, 2012 - Funny to read old tasting notes 2009 & 2010, with comments on effervescence. Purchased from K&L this year, 2012, and no sign.

    But, one of the better, complex. 12.5% alc Pinot Blancs have had.

    Its a very pale yellow color.
    One the Nose: White grapfruit, Meyer lemon, and wet stone. Hint of petrol after 24 hours.
    In The mouth: The citrrus and acid is carried by lush fruit, and dense mouthfeel.
    Green apple, pear, lemon. Nice acidity on finish.

    November 7, 2011 - love this Pinot Blanc from K&L glad I bought more. Low 12.5% alc, slightly effervescent, awesome acidity, tons of citrus and some wet stone. Great wine.

    May 14, 2011 - K&L German Tasting (K&L, San Francisco): Creamy buttery nose; more balanced on the palate. Not flabby but has a very short finish. Average wine, not my style.

    April 5, 2011 - Deep golden color, youthful. Intense nose, aromas of tangerine, lime and wet stone. It has a refreshing acidity, flavors of citrus, orange peel, it's dry, a bit short on the length. Good wine overall, but not super complex

    January 29, 2011 - Very very light gold in appearance, with a nose of apple, citrus, kiwi and minerality. Strong citric green apple taste gave way to a tart mineral finish. Slightly frissante, with an almost non-existent finish.
