Community Tasting Note

Monday, March 13, 2023 - Glassware: Zalto Universal
Prep: Pop n’ pour

Intoxicating and complex nose of Haribo peach, strawberry cream, lime peel, almond skin, prune, and clover honey. With some vigorous aeration in the glass I get more ripe red apple and pineapple fruit aromas. Creamy and layered, yet elegant on the palate owing to fine acids and a core of wet slate minerality. While there is some stone fruit presence on the palate with ripe yellow peach, I get more citrus and tropical notes including pineapple, Mandarin orange, and marzipan.

I adored the 2019 bottling of this wine, which had more aromas and flavors in the fig/prune/almond of the spectrum, but this wine just dazzles with its weightless intensity and complexity of fruit notes. Stunningly good auslese, can't wait to see how these develop in the cellar.
