Innocent Bystander
Yarra Valley Pinot Noir 2019
An old favourite but not quite as stellar as I remember it from the 2015 vintage. Still good though. Blueberry and boysenberry. Sandalwood, some subtle oak and a feeling of dusty candystore. Good acidity and a couple of years can probably work miracles. — 3 days ago

Bela Brut Malvazija 2013
Wow was not expecting this. I thought it was off at first but then I read the back and saw this was a 2013... super oxidative but in a good way. Maybe a bit of bottle shock. But this ended up being stellar. Burnt orange peel, toffee butter and flint on the nose. On the palate, candied toasted walnuts and hazelnuts. Fresh acidity and beautiful tiny bubbles. Super fun to try an old skin contact petnat malvasia from slovenia 👍 — 13 days ago

ARPEPE
Il Pettirosso Terrazze Retiche di Sondrio Nebbiolo 2017
Beautiful lightness in color and structure. Juicy with warm strawberry, cherry and lingonberry flavors. The nose bergamot, pomeraner, sandalwood and a little bit of nail polish. Absolutely stellar! — 11 hours ago
Marchesi di Barolo
Maràia Barbera del Monferrato
Didn’t see any stellar or at least detailed reviews here. I have to say I really quite dig this. As always, need to consider whether it’s my state of mind. Med ruby. Subtle oak on the nose as well as fruit and just a pinch of something funky (really subtle and in a good way). Body is medium, balanced. Taste - strawberry but not in a jammy way. Got some anise I think for one sec but not on my last couple of sips. I know this is low tannin grape but nothing feels missing. Overall great and - not to be tacky - especially for the price. — 5 days ago
