Community Tasting Note

Friday, June 18, 2021 - While drunk over 4 days, I didn’t find this an open book that was willing to reveal too much. There were citrus notes, orchard fruit and riper tropical tones accompanied with the requisite WS slate and minerals. Definitely some complexity there. Less sweet that I expected though. Don’t get me wrong, there was plenty of fruit sweetness, but I suspect a little less residual sugar than normal (or it’s just hidden more than usual). Acidity is en pointe, and already integrated into a relatively round palate. It’s not shimmering though like it does in some vintages. Overall, I found there was a lot in the bottle, especially for a Kabinett, but the package was a little hard to open. More muted than expected given the hype around the vintage. Will be very interesting to follow this over time. Rated conservatively.
