Community Tasting Notes 4

    March 16, 2011 - This didn't do it for me. Was heavy, floral, waxy in the aromas and flavors. Very dry. With a bit more acidity and sweetness it would have been livelier in the mouth, but this tasted almost inert. A new variety for me.

    July 25, 2010 - Pale yellow with a greenish tint. Quite florally, reminiscent of decorative hand soaps. Has a Rhonish texture on the palate; rich, oily feel with flavors of lychee, flowers and waxy apple.

    April 13, 2010 - nose: nice and fresh nose of white fruits, bits of oils, lychees and spice tones. Not much depth, but has a nice crispness to it

    taste: lighter feel with nice tones of lychees, spices tones and bits of white fruits. Nice medium acidity that is nice and refreshing

    overall: A nice and interesting wine. This was good to experience would be nice with lighter fish dishes
