BACCABIANCA it's genius and a unique work of art along the lines of the wines of
Puffeney, Berlioz, Thierry Germain, Weltner and other "unicorn"/ cult
wine producers. Describing this wine is almost impossible as, like
other great works of art, it's unique. Spend an hour with it and try
and write a tasting note. I dare you. It's impossible, much like
describing the Mona Lisa by first describing her ear and then her nose,
etc. The overall effect of the painting is what matters and that is
very hard to describe. So here it goes. First, the color which is
borderline gold and faded tangerine. The nose is just crazy. The
aromatics are off the hook. Nutty. Creamy. They change every five
minutes. The palate is really hard to describe. Hints of passion
fruit, but not overly fruity. Creamy. Some nut overtones. Tea notes
flit in and out. Some soft tannins. There is stunning juiciness that
is unique in that it hits all over the inside of your mouth like a juicy
explosion. There is also awesome balance with wonderful mineral notes.
It's one of those wines that is so well made and integrated you have
to concentrate to pick out flavor elements, almost like the wines of
Laible. The finish is long, long, long, complex and mineral.
It leaves
you speechless at the end as your brain.
