Community Tasting Note

StefanAkiko Likes this wine:

Wednesday, August 17, 2022 - 81 p for the wine.
50 p for not mentioning sweetness levels on the Alsace lables. *pft*

I love Alsatian wines, but I'm not a good friend of the random sweetness that appears here and there in the wines not even designated as VT or SdGN. And for a grape with as low acidity as GewT, I'm all about done with purchasing them on a "maybe" basis.

Fact is: two of the drunkards (Duncan H and Danchaq) who wrote about this wine before me here on CT didn't even care (or note?) to report that this is a semi-sweet wine with lowly acidic levels. Absolutely something that matters - and Danchaq even reporting a 'dry' finish *pft*.

Nevertheless, this is a beautiful wine from the simple section. The sweetness with low acidity makes it difficult to pair with refular food. (And there are so many more better sweet and semisweet wines…)

Quite the distressful evening, but an extremely beautiful Hakkaisan Junmai Ginjo feom their heavenly special Kawagura provided some consolation for this grumpy old geezer.
