Guessed this as a 2018 white burg. A successful blind by all accounts! Ripe, lush Chardy fruit (even a touch of pineapples) and excellent quality oak, all wrapped in a lively, saline package. Deceptively light at the start, but air does bring out quite a bit of texture and power. For me, certainly a wine of its soil (white clay on limestone) and vintage, once revealed. Delicious, although I did find it a tad heavy at the end of the night. — a month ago

Our second choice, but a total winner. The “first”choice just didn’t work. Probably has a few years left, but gorgeous right now. Drink now, if you can find it — 4 months ago

really coming along nicely. dark and lighter fruits, some earthiness that integrates with air. I’d decant this unless you drink slowly. Excellent value Burgundy. — 6 months ago

2022/8. As I’ve noted lately, it feels like the de Villaine whites have added another level in the last several years - deeper, more complex and more satisfying, without sacrificing any joyousness and without trying to be Meursault or anything like that. — a year ago

I’ve been a long time buyer of Wendouree but have not had many of their 100% Malbec. They are only offered to club members occasionally. Often used to blend with Cabernet or Shiraz. Exhibiting plum flesh and plum skins and that often present menthol note (eucalyptus) which is detectable in many of the Wendouree Cuvées. Medium plus palate weight with medium plus intensity verging on profound intensity. Their Malbec vines date back to the 1920s. Will have the next one in a couple of years. — 3 months ago

2023/1. Still lovely, though it feels like the wines have gotten a bit bigger and darker in the last few vintages…perhaps they just a need a couple of years to shed a little baby fat… — 6 months ago

Very delicious Pinot, but was expecting a little more complexity. Wonderful pairing with salmon. — 9 months ago
