Excellent, would definitely have again. Slightly fruitier than your average dry Sauvignon. Purchased via Naked. — 4 years ago
A rich and savory blend of Touriga Nacional and Syrah, it offers a deep and complex nose of currants, plum, black pepper, black tea, dried mushrooms, saddle wood, and dark chocolate. Bright acidity brings energy to a full body.
Could not be more happy to pick out this gem at a great restaurant in Macau, probably one of the most under-the-radar (certainly not underrated as this tiny peninsula boasts 3 Michelin 3-star restaurant) food destination. — 5 years ago
This is a delicious Riesling from the 2022 vintage. The RR destination indicates it’s from three different vineyards, all on red slate soil. At 12.5%abv it is just slightly off-dry - perceptible sweetness but less than most Kabinett wines. The fruit clearly got ripe with luscious apple, ripe pear, yellow plum, lemon, lime and flint along with a hint of petrol. Exceptional balance, good acidity and a very long finish. Very speaking note and will last many more years than I have patience to wait! — 6 months ago

Mid to deep crimson in colour. Aromas of red berries, a little oak, a bunchie stalky note, spices including nutmeg and a dash of chocolate. Medium plus bodied quite northern Rhone in style more than SA. Not dissimilar to another excellent North Island Syrah as in Trinity Hill, Hawkes Bay. Very good, very tasty. From the unlikely destination of Waiheke Island which is in the middle of Auckland Harbour, which is massive in area compared to Sydney Harbour. One would think the rainfall might be a little high for quality viticulture but not so. Also when you think that one of the best new world Chardonnays in Kumeu River is made just to the north of Auckland. — 4 years ago
Some more single vineyard Chardonnay, didn’t have high expectations for these wines as the actual winery seems like a photo op destination more than anything. Very pleasantly surprised, minimal to no oak; upwardly linear, medium to full bodied but still bright and vibrant. — 2 years ago
Today it’s time for "Destí" with Grenache only, by Merum Priorati @merumpriorati. It comes from the vineyards that are halfway up the slopes of this winery. A friendly but powerful Priorat wine with body and very balanced. "Destí" (destination) symbolizes the place where wines of Merum aim for, no more and no less than Heaven. Which one is yours? #dovinsdelaterra #doqpriorat #vinscatalans — 4 years ago
