vintage 2011 | Topnotch dessertwine from petit manseng, wine with a good tension because the sweetness is balanced by acidity — a month ago

The nose brims with orchard and tropical fruit layered with honeysuckle and fresh herbs. On the palate, the acidity remains crisp and lively, yet there’s a gentle creaminess that rounds the edges with quiet sophistication.

At year 8, this 70/30 Petit Courbu/Petit Manseng blend remains a thoughtful meditation in the glass fitting to its name.

Here comes the ❄️…. Maybe.
Meanwhile we bring our own wine. It’s chilled a bit more than we’d like….. but after a bit it’s very palatable. — 4 years ago

This was an excellent wine. It sadly came from a friend’s caller who has passed recently but we raised a glass in his name. Thank you Vic — 7 years ago

2020 vintage. Dry Pacherenc du Vic-Bilh. Petit Manseng and Gros Manseng. Dark yellow colour, like a young Sauternes. Honey and flowers. There is definitely a slightly sweet impression on both nose and palate, don't expect a bone dry wine. A lovely wine though that worked well with my home made shrimp soup, but I think this would be a great match for foie gras or light curries. Abv. 13,5%. — a month ago

Thank you Soumah for this media sample.

This is not any old Yarra Valley (VIC) Chardonnay. There were only 300 dozen bottles of this Equilibrio 2019 Chardonnay made and oh my, it’s a true pleasure to drink.

Drinking this Chardonnay feels like falling in love. It’s dreamy, romantic and you can’t get enough of it.

It’s a pastel yellow shade in the glass with a wonderfully enticing nose of juicy stone fruits, pineapple, grapefruit and creamy vanilla bean butter. On the palate it’s perfectly balanced with the most deliciously silky texture. Great length of flavour and an absolute joy to drink.

All opinions are based on my own taste buds. Wine is subjective & always evolving, so make sure you drink what you enjoy! — 4 years ago
