Anderson Hill

Goldeneye (Duckhorn Vineyards)

Anderson Valley Pinot Noir 2022

Deep Ruby color with aromas of black fruits, cedar and baking spice, aged in 40% new French oak. On the palate flavors of ripe cherry and raspberry with cola and sweet cinnamon spice notes. Full-bodied, fine tannins, long finish ending with fruit, oak and an earthy mineral character. Nice! — a month ago

Tarima Hill Old Vines Alicante Monastrell

I’m biased. Monastrell is my fav grape. This is one of the better ones I’ve tried. It’s rich, supple, dry and lovely. — 19 days ago

Grosset

Polish Hill Clare Valley Riesling 2023

Clear, pale lemon colour. Clean, pronounced floral bouquet. Dry, with high acidity and medium bodied. Intense flavours of lime, lemon and citrus blossom. Long finish with significant minerality. A very good wine that would no doubt be better after a few years.

Britannia Restaurant, Queen Anne. In the South Pacific en route from Tonga to New Zealand.

Grippy tight and tannic at opening but softened into juicy plum and cranberry with graphite and soft tannins. Lovely. Drink now if you have any of the 96 left. — 4 days ago

One of the handful of producers that can get me to taste Anderson Valley pinot. Not a fan. This was nice. Personally scored it 9.1/9.2. In most other hands, this rolls in at an 8.8.

Fantastic cult wine that I’ve had the pleasure of trying a couple of times now. Lives up to the hype. Amazing in all aspects. Big but super pretty and just keeps rewarding you with greatness every time you return to you glass. — a month ago
