Ah, quarantine you are so much better with wine. Found this gem because I am always on the lookout for a good Garnacha — 5 years ago
On the Lawn at Tanglewood this final afternoon with Steve Martin and Martin Short, along with The Steep Canyon Rangers and Jeff Babko.
Nose has green grapes, cherry skin and steely minerals. Palate is rich with acidity, light but fresh pineapple, zingy crabapple and red currant. Lovely after and hour or so of air, likely close to peak, remaining bottles should be enjoyed before mid-2020. — 6 years ago
A new tasting experience on several levels. Had never heard of or tasted this grape varietal, Schioppettino. I was looking for a lighter red off the menu at Settimo, Guy Grossi’s new Brisbane venture. Chosen purely because of its location in Friuli ie. cooler climate. The Somm was in the dark but the wine ended up being a revelation. Red cherry and cranberry - intense white pepper on nose and palate. Dried red florals. Love this style. Will be on the lookout for this Cuvée in the future. — a year ago
Nose has freshly mowed field, spring rain, light salinity, grapefruit peel and white florals.
Palate has refreshing tart (medium) lemon/grapefruit blend, wet grassy notes and great Kimmeridgian core.
Great QPR, Quincy is a wonderful alternative to Sancerre, and well worth a market search. A lightly imported AOC, but also be on the lookout for Menetou-Salon and Reuilly, which neighbor Quincy to the East and West, respectively. — 6 years ago
I am always on the lookout for a good Priorat. Menat is one. Lots of blackberry and minerality. Hint of iron. Notwithstanding the bold flavors, the wine is a little dry on the tongue. The finish is a bit sour, but not enough to spoil a well made effort. — 4 years ago
Was wondering if my tastes moved away from this in the last 18 months, but I’m impressed once again with my last bottle of this 2016. I may be repeating myself, but this brings out much of the greatness of CA Cab Sauv (dark fruit, spice, graphite, cedar, incense) without the ponderous new oak attack and flabby extraction. High acid CS, great with food, absolutely ridiculous at $20. Will be on the lookout for more. Enjoyed with homemade burgers and fries. — 5 years ago
Smooth juicy start and finish. Just delicious! Will be on the lookout for more of this. — 6 years ago

I think it is the Britannia chardy, but i might be wrong
It's his entry level
Simple, clean and very enjoyable
Just a tiny touch of oak to make it creamier
Only 32 AUD
