Community Tasting Note

Mondarin Likes this wine:

Saturday, December 23, 2023 - Excellent wine.

Pale gold. Aromas and flavors of apples, peach, wet stones, with a touch of lactic/milky/ creamy sensations.

Dry, Med + acid, high alchol (14+%), med+ body, med+ intensity, med + length.

Tastes cool climate but its still rich with ripe fruit condition. There is some gentle exposure to oxygen here, and the high alcohol and lees work give this an extra dimension of body/ texture.

This wine had the richness/ heft and and also agility and cleansing acid to handle a diverse table of Filipino foods (pancit noodles, bistec, chicaron bulaklak, braised pork belly) really well. A very nice lateral to a Russian River Valley Chard or Village Cote de Beaune.
