Community Tasting Note

Wednesday, February 9, 2022 - Light and delicate. On entry supple and welcome. Gentle, like a warm hand softly caressing you. Slightly off-dry. Elegant, ethereal. Beautiful. Like a Lorraine Loots painting; soft, subtle, but filled with nuance and filigreed detail. Powdered slate and floral notes are then taken over by pear, stone fruit, exotic spices, amchur, shiso, kafir lime leaves, calamansi. A melodic and unfailingly resonant riesling. On first sip, I was scurrying to get more. Drinking beautifully now, but best staring in 3-5 years. AP 13 21
