Community Tasting Note

Sunday, August 1, 2021 - Despite its name, this wine does have some fruit on the nose: pink grapefruit, peach, ataulfo mango skins and just a hint of passion fruit. However, it is intermixed with a deep flinty mineral backbone to merit its eponymous name. Though it is on the palate where the wine starts to shine best. A surprising amount of weight in the mid palate and a strong coarse granite and saline textural finish. It feels like this wine wants to be all about texture and density. It needs a few years to calm down and integrate though. AP 09 20
