Fresh, fruity. Citrus and creamy. Jean charles boisset N21° brut cremant de Bourgogne @5280, Peiroth, 241011 — 20 days ago
At the Yarra Yering dinner in Brisbane last Thursday 3rd October 2024 with winemaker Sarah Crowe. A blend of Shiraz, Viognier, Mataro and Marsanne. The original vineyards of Shiraz and Marsanne were established in 1969 with additional vineyards of Mataro and Viognier planted from 1984 to 1995. A lovely red berried perfume (raspberry) with some stalks added back in. Interestingly some fermenters have added frozen Viognier skins to the bottom, some have Marsanne skins. Sarah is always wanting to push the envelope with her winemaking. A classic Rhone style, blended with perfume in mind. Red wine of the year from the Halliday Wine Companion and awarded 99 points from Philip Rich from that publication. — 24 days ago
Columbia Valley Merlot with medium tannin and high acidity, with notes of plum and tobacco, at Coastal Alchemist wine bar, Ogunquit, ME — a month ago
Very impressed with this bottle. 2017 vintage and it still explodes with flavor across your tongue and down the sides dragging a solid melon, peach, and honey the whole way to the back of your mouth. The front end is very citrusy with a little white pepper. — 2 months ago
Smooth with earth and soft dark fruits. Not many tannins — 4 days ago
At this price point I don’t think that Napa Cab can touch this quality and appeal. Gives what Cabernet drinkers want and saves you the extra $10-20 you may pay elsewhere — 16 days ago
Black cherry, raspberry, plum, blackberry, cassis and oak. Full-bodied and soft tannins. — a month ago
No problems noted despite the age. Very good, but not outstanding. The nose was great at about 30 minutes-1 hour in the glass. The nose seemed to fade over the evening, but still very nice. Acidity is notable. Earthy flavors, tobacco, dried fruit. Great experience trying a 41 year old vintage! — 2 months ago

This No Name Nebbiolo needs no introduction. Fruity and earthy with lovely acidity makes for nice pairing with Rao’s wonderful pasta dishes. Delicious and easy drinking. — 18 days ago
