Samuel Smith's Organic Chocolate Stout Beer

9.2

Rich, chocolatey, syrupy, light hop bitterness on finish. Much to like; it defines the stout style — 3 months ago

Wow. If this was blind - I would’ve guessed 20 year old Bordeaux. Super complex and combo of tannins, fruit, meat, and some tobacco. Crazy. Nothing like I remember it from last bottle we had 10 years ago — a year ago

Pale Ale

9.0

Samuel Smith's Organic Pale Ale is a nice pint. Amber coloured with a good but not over frothy bread. Bready, malty, and with a hint of caramel complimented by light carbonation.
A good traditional pale ale from one of England's oldest and finest brewers. — a year ago

Porongurup Riesling 2017

9.1

I consumed my stocks of this dozen way too soon. I had the first bottle 209 weeks ago and now only have 1 left which I will leave until 2027 when 10 years old. Currently stacks of citric acid - lemon and lime. A whiff of Granny Smith Apple. Rob Diletti also makes the Riesling for his near neighbour Dukes which win awards left right and centre - 99 points from Halliday for the Dukes. — 2 years ago

Montanita de Oro Pinot Noir 2022

Seth Masterson

9.3

This is very impressive stuff- it has more wild raspberry notes and almost black fruit notes on this one and some garigue/herbal tones. The aromas are just erupting from the glass as soon as its poured. There's a raw and wild essence to it while retaining the sophistication of Sam's other Pinots. — 6 months ago

Château Smith Haut Lafitte

Le Petit Haut Lafitte Red Bordeaux Blend 2010

Marc Melser

9.1

We had the 2010 Vintage on 8/19-20/23. A wonderful wine. Full bodied but still Old World. The bouquet was very Bordeaux with aroma of graphite, tobacco and cigar box. Blackberry, plum on the palate. Real good for a second label — a year ago

9.0

2008: at 15 years old: still so bright and energetic. Buttered toast, orchard apple, stone on nose. Bright acidity accompanied by fine effervescent bubbles, creamy lemon and Granny Smith apple predominate palate with nice lengthy finish….shoulda waited to open but appreciate the tension and exuberance. — a year ago
