Community Tasting Note

Tuesday, December 7, 2021 - Pale gold color. Drank a glass plus on consecutive nights. This was good on day one, but better and more complete on day 2+. The nose offers toasted oak and gunflint with a brightness of citrus and lemon, subtle floral notes that evolve slowly, vanilla bean and a dry minerality. The medium plus bodied palate generally mirrors the nose expressing tart lemon and more distant pear. Over the next two days this became much more expressive, with a blend of citrus, green orchard fruits and nectarine on both the nose and palate. That coupled with more integration of the oak and even more delineation of the crisp, dry flinty minerality really made a difference. This strikes a balance of new and old world and skews more old world with a deft balance of fruit and minerality. Drink over the next 5 years. 90pts day 1. Day 2 and 3, 91+ to 92pts.
