"S" Slatnik Venezia Giulia Chardonnay Tocai Friulano 2021

At first it reminded me of a Normandy craft cider. Then I poured some in my glass and the colour struck me. It's orangey and clearly turbid. Not your casual chardonnay Sunday evening pour. The nose is verrrryyy complex, pear, apple, honey, elderflower, white pepper, some slight apricot touch and some yeasty notes too (?). The palate is great too, good acid drive, pear and apple, honey, good width, soft mouthfeel that turns into a tannic wall in the rear that caresses the tongue before powering a multi-layered finish with honey, apricot, apple, pear, a savoury, salty touch. Wow this is wild. It's absolutely not the same wine nor the same tastes and varietals but this reminds to some extent of Joly's wines from la Coulée de Serrant. Extremist in the approach somehow. These guys will die on that hill with their ideas. — a day ago

The Joly reference is a good one.

@Jay Kline it struck me like an evidence, eventhough the wines have nothing in common 🤷🏻‍♂️

En D-Magnum. My ‘Private Label’ cabs are still showing well. 😎. 1992 Mag and ‘99 750 are a step behind, but still very good. — 6 months ago

'S' de Suduiraut Bordeaux Contrôlée 2019

White stonefruits, citrus and an underlying green note, some oak as well, medium-bodied and really shows the dominant Semillon with mineral and oily, viscous notes as well, this is a really fine dry Sauternes!! — 5 months ago
