2015 vintage. 100% biodynamically farmed Sauvignon blanc made by young Blaye producer Jessica Aubert. This wine was meant to be drunk young, but actually a nice surprise at almost 6 years old. Light golden colour. Fine honeyed and floral nose with impressions of dried pineapple. Sweet exotic fruit with a certain complexity and nice spicy length. Very nice if you are into older whites. — 8 days ago

Deep pink. A little sweet spice, like honey baked ham, small white flowers on the nose. A light and fresh palette, initially you get fruit like fresh blueberries maybe a little tartness/cranberry with a nice sense of minerality, dissipates quickly into slight funk and menthol/cough syrup/outer layer of tootsie pop. Long finish. Definitely more tannin then you’re used to with a rose. — 2 days ago

Vintage 2011 Blanc/White from mainly Sauvignon. Goldshine. Still very much alive with tiny honey impression. Vibrant taste. Good effort! — 14 days ago

This was the mystery wine at the Downs Club Committee dinner on Wednesday night and I was a long way from picking it. I don’t want this to sound snooty but I rarely drink Cotes de Bordeaux and on this showing I should be. Merlot dominant medium bodied with red fruits, a touch of tobacco and grainy tannins. Incredible QPR - can be bought for $30 in Australia. — 24 days ago

Another bottle. Still great! Can’t think of a better house red. Freaking delicious for around $30. Has pedigree. Will go with a steak. Very serious wine but also worthy of a mindless 7pm Monday evening — 20 days ago

2016 vintage. This is the "Prestige", the top wine from Château Rousselle, Côtes de Bourg. 85% Merlot, 10% Malbec, 5% Cabernet Franc. Black and red fruits, violets and spices. Concentrated with complexity and great balance. More backward than the delicious 2015, better the next day. Long finish. Decanting recommended. — 15 days ago
