Community Tasting Note

Somm David T Likes this wine:

Thursday, April 25, 2019 - The reserve is much fuller & creamy on the nose. I would imagine more lee’s time. Buttered popcorn, green apple, pineapple, lime, lemon, underripe green melon, saline, little white spice, waxy notes, honey notes, medium intensity minerals and chalk. Yellow flowers/lilies and spring flowers with a hint of greens.

The body is medium full. It starts with ripe, bright fruits and evolves into pronounced white spice, heavy, palate penetrating volcanic minerals. Buttered popcorn, green apple, pineapple, lime, lemon, underripe green melon, saline, little white spice, waxy notes, cream, honey notes, medium intensity minerals and chalk. Yellow flowers/lilies and spring flowers wit a hint of greens. The acidity is quite high and pushes the limit. The finish is pleasant but evolves quickly into spice & minerals on the long set. You really need to enjoy a mineral driven wine here.

Tasted at DeMorgenzon.
