Blokes & Sheilas

Hospices de Beaune

Beaune Cuvee Guigone de Salins 2015

Every year since 2010 the blokes at Prince Wine Store have purchased a barrel from the Hospice Auction with the help of Benjamin Leroux and Aussie, Jane Eyre (who raises the wine for Prince). Dark crimson with purple tinges. Ripe rich red fruits. Nose a little closed because of its youth. So much density and concentration from this warm year. Smells and tastes new world. Has a tremendous future. In that latency you can see that spicy character will come through. These 2015 Red Burgundies will need at least 10 years before they start to behave like Burgundies rather than New World Pinots. Might try the next one around 2023. — 5 years ago

Some Young Punks

Double Love Trouble Shiraz Nebbiolo Blend

Berry driven, silky tannins, reliable, solid. Pick of the range but what happened to the blokes? — 9 years ago

Australia Chardonnay

Incredibly crisp and refreshing first taste with virtually no after bite. Great for a hot summer day with friends. Surprisingly smooth for a Chardonnay! — 8 years ago

M3 Adelaide Hills Chardonnay 2014

What the fuck. These blokes cant go wrong. One of the best South Aus chard's I've ever had. Confectionary peach, yoyo biscuits, toasted oak and green apple skins. I'd bath in it. — 9 years ago

I wish I periscoped the tasting of this Radian. The English blokes I'm with FREAKED OUT!! "Wine for the Pope!", it was proclaimed. This site, with its Burgundian notes, and Brandon's stellar winemaking, makes this an exceptional offering. Clean, with curves, and long finish. Beautiful. — 9 years ago
