Domaine de Beudon

Riesling x Sylvaner 2007

14-year old Müller-Thurgau. Apricot on the nose. Palate is low acid, chewy stone fruit and a slug of diesel. Bitter almond, citrus oil. Love these wines. — 3 years ago

Dusted Valley Vintners

Stone Tree Vineyard Petite Sirah 2010

Holy F! Seriously, the 2010 vintage is phenomenal!! The nose is sultry, dark, jammy blackberries, vanilla, and new leather. The wine explodes in your mouth (seriously, kaboom!) and just lingers on and on. Fantastic tannic gription. Rich, jammy overripe plums give way to blackberry, pepper and finally a mellow black cherry and cola note. This seems to be at or near its peak. It is fan-freaking-tastic!!! Yum x 10! — 7 years ago

Walter Scott

X Novo Vineyard Chardonnay 2019

Saline, citrus, stone. Very light lemon yellow color… light to med in weight…lean, powerful, laser-sharp, and focused… this wine needs time ( perhaps quite a bit) to settle. A touch of match strike reduction…I like the wine, but….on this evening tended to overpower the roast halibut and mashed celeriac. — 3 years ago

Champagne Thienot x Penfolds

Champagne Chardonnay Pinot Noir 2012

Personally, I wouldn't pay the recommended retail price of AUD280 for this champagne, but at half that, it was well worth what it delivered. Open from the get go and certainly complex, I believe this would get better with time.

Intense bouquet of pear, ginger, tobacco, brioche, marzipan, white florals, and fresh herbs. The palate was soft, but not necessarily broad. There's enough acidity, but I would have liked more cut. Technically, it's balanced though. Lots of yellow stone fruits and nutty notes. Finishes quite long with smoked cream and honey elements.

Left some to taste over the next two days and it seems air brought more focus to the fruit in the nose - apple, pear, and peach. The palate had a more obvious citric zing, but the notes were generally the same. A nice wine and one I wouldn't pick Dom over.

@Jay Kline🤣 Even a sparkling Grange wouldn't be strange for Penfolds

Maria Alvarez Serrano

Coto de Gomariz Dende o Seculo X Treixadura 2018

A blend of Treixadura, Giselle & Loureiro. Expressive on the nose with yellow stone fruit, moist rocks & moss and a saline whiff. Surprisingly rich on the palate yet beautifully balanced by the juicy acidity and asking, mineral bite.
This has surprising depth & precision. An absolutely beautiful match with fish (pot roasted red gurnard)!!
