Community Tasting Note

Saturday, July 11, 2020 - Haven't had tons of GG's, so thought I'd splash on a very highly regarded one. Extremely expressive nose, one of the best straight out of the gate. Mineral, cementy, stone notes on palate. Malic apples, lime and that slightly chopped garden hose note (I'm sick of calling it petrol;). Acid is very lively and it has a mouth watering coat. It is perhaps the most perfectly balanced Riesling I've tried - from attack to extended end - just and endless, even, perfect ride. Very long finish. Yes, you can tell it's young, but it still drinks beautifully. My only hangup is as usual (and sorry to sound like broken record on this) the sweetness. This is just a tinsy bit too sweet for me. Almost there, just a skosh on the wrong side for my taste. But the flavors, depth and balance is all there, so have to score it for that.
