Community Tasting Note

Wednesday, November 10, 2004 - Rather more muted nose than 1997, simpler combination of lemon curd and toast and lacking intensity. Much more happening on the palate, lemon with a creamy edge, has the strong acidity again. Seems a lot simpler than the 1997, but has more impressive length. Finishes quite austere with an almost chalky character.

This was Bruce's favourite and I think there is potential, the wine picked up more weight with some air and may just be in a slightly awkward stage. Also apparently there was a little botrytis in this vintage, but it didn't make itself readily apparent.
