The Sailor

Emilio Ramirez Envinate

Benje Tenerife Tinto 2022

At Sailor. Very funky, farmy, mineral, but on the lighter end of medium. Bramble with mushrooms and volcanic soil. Prune, red fruit, some anise. 02/21/24 — 2 months ago

Reserve Margaret River Cabernet Sauvignon 2010

Herbal aromas (typically Margaret River) with Geranium Capsicum and a touch of menthol. Some green notes - medium weight. Savoury wins out over Cassis and black fruits. Not in the upper echelon of Margaret River Cabernet. Just a silver medal. We went to the Cellar Door some years ago and the story goes that the Reserve Cab was served at the wedding of Prince Frederick of Denmark to Sydney Real Estate agent Mary Donaldson originally from Tasmania now Crown Princess Mary and one day will become the Queen of Denmark. Fred is a keen sailor who was representing Denmark at the Sydney Olympics in 2000 and they met at Sydney hotspot The Slip Inn where Fred was flashing his Black AMEX so the story goes and was captivated by Mary and the rest is history. — 4 years ago

Gap's Crown Vineyard Pinot Noir 2018

2018 vintage. A fave value producer. Jeff Gaffner's wines should be double their price but they're not. Many thanks. This offering carries on that tradition. Gap's Crown Vineyard not exactly the cheapest CA Pinot noir fruit out there. This goes a little less aggro than any other interpretation of Gap's Crown fruit you'll find. Sail on, sailor. 10.18.23. — 6 months ago

Sailor Jerry

The Original 92 Proof Spiced Rum

92 proof, higher than most other spiced rums

Tastes of vanilla and oak. Makes a great Halloween cocktail, or your after 5 rum and coke.

Sailor Seeks Horse

Tasmania Pinot Noir 2015

This has got to be the top Pinot Noir from the Southern Hemisphere. Who else is fighting for the podium?! Chacra in Patigonia has a shot. Burn Cottage from NZ I like. Ochota from Oz is worthy of a podium. But yeah, Sailor is winning gold in my book. — 4 years ago

Couldn't agree more! Their chard is also stellar.

Yes said the Seal

Geelong Pinot Noir 2016

Australian winemakers seem to be competing for the Quirkiest name. First we had Sailor Seeks Horse and now Yes, Said the Seal. Both specialising in Pinot Noir. This wine had notes of Cherry red berries Forest floor and unobtrusive spicy oak. The savoury palate reflects the aromas. This was the Winner of the Australian Pinot Challenge recently. Chief Judges were seasoned Show Judge and Burgundy nut Phillip Rich and Jim Chatto chief winemaker at McWilliams. Young Pinot doesn't get much better than this. Tasted again 49 weeks later on 9th September 2018 with consistent notes. Yet made another note on Delectable. — 7 years ago
