Château Roc de Cambes

Côtes de Bourg Red Bordeaux Blend

My favourite Cotes de Bourg wine & after having the yummy 2010 & 14 recently I wondered if a 19 year old top vintage @ £98 would hold well & yes it sure didly 😉 88 points from Parker 🤣 but not worth it’s hefty price tag 🤑

🐮 Paired w/ Mrs Es Fillet 🥩 mac 🧀 & 🥔 😍 scroll for pics ⏩

Hugh Yarra Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2015

Interesting cool climate cab led Aussie Bordeaux…think I left it too late to drink it, best at 5-7 years given freshness in winemaking style? — 9 months ago

Mac Forbes

Wesburn Pinot Noir 2016

Light cherry red in colour. Cherry and raspberry together with a jubey confectionery note on the nose and palate. On the palate “bigger” than your normal Yarra Valley Pinot. Winemaking Notes: 10% whole bunch, partially de-stemmed - a portion foot stomped. Open fermenters - matured for 12 months in old oak. Indigenous yeast; No filtration, no fining. — 3 years ago

Hugh Gruyere Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2010

From magnum. A well balanced well made medium bodied Cabernet from Mac Forbes in the Yarra Valley. Some vegetal notes to the red fruits but in balance and easy to drink with a Waygu Porterhouse on the 23rd with relatives from the UK. Probably at its peak. Bought back in the day as we have a son named Hugh who is with us from NYC and like many of his contemporaries has given up drinking! — 6 months ago

EB 10 Ginger Rizz Riesling 2014

Delectable told me I drank this exact wine 4 years straight after it had been bottled.
4 years later and my love was rekindled.
Such a rad and fun Riesling, tickles the senses.
