Community Tasting Note

Sunday, January 26, 2020 - Using the bottle etching around the base, it would appear this was disgorged Sept 2016, which sounds like 8 years on the lees to me. We opened this last night and In recognized it took some air for the structure to develop, as it started off a bit soft initially. With the air, the chalky/mineral inflection increased. So, decided to bring home the last glass and keep it overnight, but using only a natural cork, it lost the CO2 overnight and is pretty well still today. Lightly bronzy/gold in the glass. Some toasty bruised green apple, pear, tangy lemon from the acidity, along with some slatey mineral in the finish. I actually like this better today, as a mostly still wine as it drinks like a cool, complex Chardonnay.
