Les Granitiers Monterey County Chardonnay 2023

2023 Les Granitiers Monterey County Chardonnay

This Chardonnay has nose! Delightful vanilla bean, white florals, and light herbals it's lightly reminiscent of Galliano.
Great acid, freshness, minerality. A real winner. Mr. Smith has done it again.

This is the best chardonnay I've had in 2024.

Montanita de Oro Pinot Noir 2022

This is very impressive stuff- it has more wild raspberry notes and almost black fruit notes on this one and some garigue/herbal tones. The aromas are just erupting from the glass as soon as its poured. There's a raw and wild essence to it while retaining the sophistication of Sam's other Pinots. — 4 months ago

Henschke

Louis Eden Valley Sémillon 2023

At the Henschke weekend at Spicers Maryvale. Brief notes. 100% Semillon grown on the Henschke Eden Valley vineyard. From 50 year old vines planted by Stephen’s father, Cyril. Very pale in colour. Aromatics of ripe grapefruit. Granny Smith apple on palate with a slightly soapy texture. Different to Hunter Valley Semillon and more approachable at a young age. — 4 months ago

Escolle Vineyard Gamay Noir 2021

This is incredibly delicious Gamay!! Bright fruits on the nose and pallete. Made with much care and precision. After a few sips youre left with the inner conflict of quaffing down the rest of it because it's so damn delicious and drinkable or continuing to sip it to discover further flavors and layers.

Pale Ale

GV
9.0

Samuel Smith's Organic Pale Ale is a nice pint. Amber coloured with a good but not over frothy bread. Bready, malty, and with a hint of caramel complimented by light carbonation.
A good traditional pale ale from one of England's oldest and finest brewers.
