Monday, February 12, 2024 - Glassware: Grassl Cru
Prep: Pop n’ pour, sampled over several nights

First couple nights this was not that interesting or expressive, just some shy notes of reduction, minerality, and lime on the nose and palate. After 3 days in the fridge it has opened up very nicely. More aromatic flint and crushed rocks, seabreeze, lime peel, and a whiff of orange rind on the nose. Medium-bodied and creamy but with gripping acidity. I particularly love the texture coming from the pronounced rocky minerality on this wine that lingers on the finish. Peeking in are notes of ripe yellow apple, pear, lemongrass, and a touch of buttered popcorn. Will save my last bottle for a few years.
